Graveyard fight in Darien

By Billie Owens

A fight is reported in the graveyard by Darien Lake. A Sheriff's Deputy and a State Trooper are responding.

If it's the Darien Cemetery, that's located at 10512 Colby Road.

They maybe talking about what the police and security at darien lake call the graveyard which is on darien lake property it is the far far back section of the concert parking area, called the graveyard because of the amount of fights and other stuff that goes on there because it is so far back and dark back there not sure people havent been killed over the years back there...

That's probably exactly what they were talking about, Bruce. It sometimes take a local to decipher what these folks are talking about. Thank You!!

I don't think that's right. I've never heard that section referred to as the grave yard but I'm not security. There have not been any killings in that area in the last 25 years or ever. There is a really old grave yard on 77 just past Sumner Rd on the left. I would venture that's where it was. I know of no grave yards on Colby. If there is, it's well hidden.

you're correct about the location and the security police lingo. however, its called the graveyard because there are old ride parts and broken items back there from the park.
