A Fulton County man stabbed another man in his stomach Saturday night during an argument outside a rock concert at Northern Lights, State Police said.
Daniel P. Taylor was arrested shortly after police received a call at 9:15 p.m. for a fight outside the live music venue.
Taylor, 28, of Caroga Lake and a 40-year-old Schenectady man were arguing in the Northern Lights parking lot and began fighting, police said. Taylor then allegedly stabbed the victim in the abdomen.
Police first found the victim at a Cumberland Farms near Northern Lights and found Taylor nearby as well.
The victim was taken to Albany Medical Center and was listed in stable condition Sunday afternoon.
Taylor was charged with first-degree assault, a Class B felony that carries a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
Taylor was arraigned in Clifton Park Town Court and sent to Saratoga County Jail on $75,000 bail. He is scheduled to reappear in court on Dec. 2.
The stabbing occurred as Northern Lights was hosting the first day of a two-day combination rock concert and tattoo show called Rat-A-Tat. A Northern Lights employee said Sunday that she was unaware of the stabbing and that the venue is open and hosting the second day of the show.
