The business is located at 2395 Main Street in the Village of Clayville.Sheriff’s Deputies arrived on scene shortly after the 911 report and say they found two individuals had significant injuries to their bodies from the attack, as well as several uninjured employees who intervened during the second attack and held the attacker on the ground until law enforcement arrived.The injured employees are Moulay Amrani, age 36 of the Utica area, who was airlifted by Mercy Flight to Upstate Medical Center with life threatening injuries. The second victim, named Nicholas Sutton age 34 of the Utica area, sustained significant lacerations to his head and was transported to Wynn Hospital for treatment. He has been released from the hospital.Sheriff’s Investigators determined that an employee, 23-year-old Zackery Stowell from Poland NY, had parked in the vicinity of the plant and walked to the plant with a concealed hatchet. Deputies say Stowell accessed the plant and walked throughout the plant for several minutes, appearing to be in search of someone. Stowell eventually exited the main portion of the plant and unsuccessfully attempted to prop up the main door to the plant open with his sandal. Deputies say Stowell spoke with the guard, Maoulay Amrani, at the guard station in the lobby for a minute when he then attacked the Security Officer/Amrani who was seated in a chair. Deputies say this attack was unprovoked. Stowell struck Amrani nine times in the head with the bladed edge of the hatchet, causing significant life-threatening injuries to his skull and brain. Stowell then broke into a cabinet at the guard station and took several swipe cards in an attempt to re-access the plant, but none of the swipe cards worked so he was not able to get back inside the plant from the lobby area. Stowell then propped both lobby doors open and exited the lobby with the hatchet where he encountered another employee, being Nicholas Sutton, walking alongside the building. Stowell then attacked Sutton with the hatchet, striking him four times on the head before Sutton, who was injured and bleeding extensively, was able to defend himself and gain control of the hatchet. Stowell and Sutton fell to the ground where Stowell struck Sutton numerous times with his fists on his head and body in an attempt to get the hatchet back from Sutton but was unsuccessful. Several other employees who heard Sutton’s calls for help arrived and removed Stowell, who was on top of Sutton while now on the ground. These assisting employees were able to restrain and hold Stowell on the ground until law enforcement arrived.Members of the Sheriff’s Office and New York State Police, who arrived to assist, detained Stowell, who resisted arrest and subsequently bit a member of the State Police on the thigh area. The Trooper was treated at Wynn Hospital and released.Stowell was transported to Wynn Hospital for evaluation and was guarded by members of the Sheriff’s Office.Both crime scenes were processed by the Sheriff’s Forensic Identification Unit while evidence was located and secured by the Criminal Investigations Unit.On Sunday, November 8th, 2026, Stowell was released from the hospital and transported to the Kurt B. Wyman Law Enforcement Building where he was processed and officially charged with two counts of Attempted Murder in the 2nd Degree, Class B Felonies, two counts of Assault in the First Degree, Class B Felonies, two counts of Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Fourth Degree, Class A Misdemeanors, one count of Assault in the 3rd Degree, a Class A Misdemeanor and one count of Resisting Arrest, a Class A Misdemeanor.Stowell was then taken to CAP Court (Centralized Arraignment) where he was arraigned on the charges and remanded to the Oneida County Correctional Facility on $250,000 cash bail, $500,000 Bond, $1 million Security Bond.</div></body>
