PRESTON – On Oct. 22, 2015, at about 10:49 a.m., following a 911 call that came in that morning, New York State Troopers responded to a report about two men fighting in a car, possibly with a knife, on Turner Street in the Town of Preston.

While arriving on scene, troopers found the three suspects were separated and no one was injured.

After assessing the scene and performing an investigation, the New York State Troopers determined that Todd E. Hamilton, 30, of Unadilla, was driving a vehicle while Jodi E. Babcock, 33, of Sidney, and Nathan A. Diamond, 35, of Unadilla, were the passengers.

Allegedly, while driving, Hamilton was in a verbal argument with the front seat passenger who was identified as Diamond. Hamilton then allegedly tried to stab Diamond with a knife. As the two struggled, Hamilton stopped the car and Babcock made the 911 call.
