Man sentenced in stabbing outside Oakland County restaurant

OAKLAND COUNTY, Mich. – A man convicted in connection with a stabbing outside an Oakland County restaurant has been sentenced to a year in jail.

Dquavion Lamariee Broome was sentenced Tuesday in Oakland County Circuit Court to 365 days in the Oakland County Jail for assault with intent to do great bodily harm. He received credit for 200 days already served.

The stabbing happened in August 2025 in the parking lot of the Sedona Taphouse Restaurant in Troy. Broome got into an altercation with a man he knew and stabbed him. The victim was taken to the hospital for treatment.

Broome left Michigan following the stabbing. He was arrested and charged after he returned to the state in October 2025.

Judge Jacob J. Cunningham presided over the sentencing. Broome, who entered a no-contest plea, was sentenced under Michigan’s fourth-offense habitual offender statute.

A felony assault charge was dismissed as part of the plea. Cunningham objected to a tether as an alternative to jail time, according to court records.
