On July 5 around 9:15 p.m. officers from the Waterloo Police Department and deputies from the Seneca County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to the area of East Williams and Church streets for a fight-in-progress.

Scanner traffic from that incident initially indicated that a stabbing may have taken place.

When officers arrived it was discovered that one person had been cut with a knife and suffered a laceration to the arm. North Seneca Ambulance responded to the scene, however, that person was airlifted by LifeNet to Upstate Medical Hospital.

It was also discovered that a vehicle had been damaged during the incident; and the victim had their car keys forcibly stolen from them.


As result of the investigation, Dakota Standbrook, 24, of Waterloo was charged with a felony count of assault and criminal possession of a weapon. Bronc Petrie, 18, of Waterloo was charged with criminal mischief and third-degree robbery.

Both are scheduled for additional court action at a later date.
