During the evening hours of January 29, 2026, Bingen-White Salmon Police responded to a reported stabbing in the 200 block of East Franklin Street in Bingen, Washington. The suspect initially fled the scene on foot.

The victim ran to a nearby residence, where Fire and EMS personnel provided treatment for multiple stab wounds. The victim was transported to a local hospital and later transferred to a Portland-area hospital for further treatment.

Multiple agencies, along with the Bingen-White Salmon Police Department UAS drone, assisted in the initial search for the suspect. The suspect was later identified as Isaac O. Sosa, of Portland, Oregon. Further investigation revealed that Sosa initially fled on foot before leaving the area in a vehicle. Klickitat County Communications issued a BOLO (Be On the Lookout) alert to surrounding agencies.

In the early morning hours of January 30, 2026, Sosa was arrested by the Port of Portland Police for an unrelated crime and booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center. An arrest warrant was later issued in this case for Attempted Murder in the Second Degree.

The Bingen-White Salmon Police Department takes all domestic violence crimes seriously and will make every effort to arrest offenders and assist in the successful prosecution of these cases.

We would like to thank our law enforcement partners for their assistance, including the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Klickitat County Sheriff’s Office, Port of Portland Police, Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, and the staff of the Multnomah County Detention Center.

This investigation remains ongoing.
