PHOENIX (AP) — Four death row prisoners have tested positive for the coronavirus and another five are showing symptoms at the Arizona prison with the most confirmed cases.

One of the ill inmates told The Associated Press that he and the others are being isolated in a dirty, cockroach-infested building.

Arizona's first case on death row surfaced last week. A federal public defender says three other condemned prisoners have since tested positive.

They're housed at the prison in Florence, which accounts for 23 of the 35 cases in state prisons. It houses the 114 men who are sentenced to die in Arizona.

Corrections officials declined to comment.
