VANCOUVER POLICE INVESTIGATE STABBING
Posted: August 6th, 2010 8:41 PM
On August 5, 2010 at approximately 3:25 a.m. Vancouver Police responded to the report of a stabbing in the 2000 block of Brandt Rd. When officers arrived they found a juvenile male in the road that had been stabbed. The victim was transported to an area hospital for evaluation and treatment of his injuries which appeared to be non-life threatening.
The Safe Streets Task Force (SSTF) gang unit continued with this investigation and was able to identify the suspect in this assault. A juvenile male born 8/12/92 was located and arrested for attempted murder. The victim of this case is only described as a 13 year old juvenile. His injury's are non life threatening.
The juvenile suspect and victim live in the area of the Villas on Bridge Creek, 2011 Brandt Road. This area is experiencing an increase in gang activity and this assault is believed to be gang involved. Because of this and fear of further assault we will not be releasing the victims name or his location at this time.
A weapon believed to be used in the assault has been recovered.
SSTF is still investigating this incident and any witnesses to this assault are encouraged to bring it to the attention of the SSTF.
