Chenango County Corrections Officer arrested for murder
BAINBRIDGE — A 26-year-old man was shot to death and another man is being treated following a shooting in Bainbridge that police believe stemmed from an incident of road rage.
According to New York State Police Troop C Commander James Barnes, police responded to a shooting that took place in the parking lot of 2907 State Route 7 in the Town of Bainbridge — the parking lot of Peak Fitness.
Police responded to the location at approximately 1:27 p.m. Monday.
Derek D. Prindle, 26, was transported to the Tri Town Hospital in Sidney where he died from his injuries.
60-year-old Derek. S. Prindle of Afton is currently being treated for a gunshot wound at Wilson Regional Medical Center in Johnson City.
New York State Public Information Officer Nathan Riegal confirmed the victims were father and son.
John M. Guzy, 56, Bainbridge, was arrested and taken into custody at the NYS Police Barracks in Sidney on the charge of murder in the second degree, a class A-1 felony.
Barnes said, “The suspect left the scene and drove to the barracks at SP Sidney.”
Chenango County Sheriff Ernest R. Cutting Jr. said Guzy was a retired New York City Police Officer who moved to the area a few years ago.
“He was on the Civil Service list and was hired at the end of June as a part-time corrections officer,” said Cutting. “He had just graduated our basic corrections academy.”
Guzy was remanded to the Chenango County Correctional Facility without bail after being arraigned in the Town of Bainbridge Court. He will appear in court at a later date.
“This is a terrible tragedy,” said Cutting. “It is hard to believe one can have road rage to the point it escalates to this. I just don’t understand what would precipitate that. It is obviously nothing we condone.”
Sheriff Cutting said while it is a State Police case, the CCSO will help out in whatever way the office can.
Barnes said the investigation is ongoing.
