When a neighbor went to the home to ask Stewart to keep down the noise, the News-Journal reported, Stewart raised a knife in the man's direction.
A second neighbor stepped in front of Stewart to protect the first man and was cut by Stewart with the machete that had "kindness" written on it, the report stated. The man suffered a cut on his hand.
Stewart, who police say smelled of alcohol, was arrested and placed in the back of a patrol car. Police said Stewart was stunned with a Taser after he grew unruly and violent inside the vehicle.
Stewart was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without the intent to kill and aggravated battery.
