WAPATO — A 24-year-old Wapato man is in intensive care at a local hospital after being stabbed 16 times Wednesday night, police said.
Alberto Sanchez was standing outside an apartment in the 400 block of West Sixth Street about 11:50 p.m. when he was repeatedly stabbed, said police Chief Richard Sanchez, who is not related.
"We don't know if there was a party going on there or what," according to Chief Sanchez, who said the man was rushed to Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital.
Police are still investigating but have yet to identify any suspects.
"No one has provided any information about it," the police chief said. "I'm sure people in the area know who (the suspects) are, but they haven't told us."
There was no sign of robbery, and it's not clear whether the stabbing was gang-related, he said.
