Vancouver, Wash. –On February 17, 2020, at approximately 4:37 a.m., Vancouver Police responded to an assault at 13th/Main Street. When officers arrived they located an adult male with a stab wound. The victim was transported to an area hospital for his injuries and he is currently in stable condition. The suspects were described as two Hispanic males. A search of the area, including a K9 track, was unsuccessful in locating the suspects.
Traffic in the area of 13th/Main was shut down for several hours while police were on scene. Main Street has since been reopened.
Detectives from the Vancouver Police Department Major Crimes Unit are investigating. It is unknown at this time if the suspects and victim were known to one another or what precipitated the assault.
Nothing further is releasable at this time.
