HOOSICK FALLS – A groom got into a fight and injured another man at his wedding reception, State Police said.

The victim, a man, spoke to State Police on Monday, saying he was punched several times in the face by David R. Labrie, 45, of Eagle Bridge during the reception Saturday at a residence in Hoosick Falls, troopers said.

Labrie later surrendered and was charged with third-degree assault, a misdemeanor. He was given an appearance ticket to return to Hoosick Town Court on July 24.

The incident began as an argument before it escalated into the melee, troopers said. The victim suffered a cut to his face that required stitches to close as well as two chipped teeth and bruises.

Troopers did not provide information on the nature of the argument or the relationship between the two.
