A 22-year-old man is facing an attempted murder charge after allegedly stabbing a restaurant employee in Upstate New York and then running to a state trooper to confess to the crime.<\/p>\n
Shayne F. Vaccaro was taken into custody without incident around 10:19 p.m. on Sunday after he approached a New York State Police patrol vehicle on State Route 67 in Malta and told the trooper he had just stabbed someone. The trooper had been clearing a traffic stop when Vaccaro ran toward the vehicle.<\/p>\n
Additional patrols responded to a nearby restaurant in the Shops of Malta, where they found a 34-year-old male employee suffering from stab wounds to his chest and arm. A Saratoga County sheriff\u2019s deputy applied a tourniquet at the scene, and emergency medical services treated the victim before transporting him to Albany Medical Center. The victim is in stable condition and is expected to survive.<\/p>\n
Vaccaro allegedly waited outside the restaurant and attacked the victim as he was leaving after finishing his shift. State police recovered the knife used in the incident, and the Forensic Investigation Unit processed it as evidence.<\/p>\n
Vaccaro has been charged with attempted murder in the second degree, a class B felony. He was arraigned and remanded to the Saratoga County Jail with bail set at $200,000 cash or $400,000 bond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 22-year-old man is facing an attempted murder charge after allegedly stabbing a restaurant employee in Upstate New…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":130012,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9,11,10,49,51,50],"class_list":{"0":"post-135407","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-new-york","9":"tag-new-york-headlines","10":"tag-new-york-news","11":"tag-new-york-state","12":"tag-new-york-state-headlines","13":"tag-new-york-state-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135407","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135407"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135407\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/130012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135407"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135407"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135407"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
