Published 5:45 pm Monday, July 6, 2026<\/p>\n
The Long Beach Police Department booked a woman into the Pacific County Jail Monday afternoon, July 6, after a reported stabbing at about 2:34 p.m. on the 1100 Block of Ocean Beach Blvd in Long Beach. <\/p>\n
According to the LBPD Deputy Chief Casey Meling, officers were dispatched to the report that there were multiple people outside fighting and that one was armed with a knife, and that a male had been stabbed. <\/p>\n
Units from LBPD, the Pacific County Sheriff\u2019s Office and Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, along with Washington State Parks rushed to the scene.<\/p>\n
\u201cOfficers arrived and contacted multiple witnesses that said they observed the female stab the male,\u201d Meling said. \u201cOfficers located the victim lying on the grass. One of the witnesses stated that the female suspect had gone inside the residence and was showering.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cThe male victim was uncooperative and said that he was not stabbed and that thorns caused the injuries. He also said that the suspect had left the scene. Officers continued to yell inside the residence to make contact with the suspect,\u201d Meling added.<\/p>\n
The suspect, Tatiana M. Bynum, 20, eventually surrendered to law enforcement and was peacefully taken into custody. <\/p>\n
\u201cRing video footage was later obtained that showed the female attacking the male with what appeared to be a knife,\u201d Meling said. \u201cThe victim was not cooperative during the investigation and refused medical attention on scene.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is our understanding that he later sought medical attention at a nearby medical facility for an evaluation,\u201d Meling added.<\/p>\n
The male reportedly had a \u201cforearm slash and abdomen puncture.\u201d His current condition is unknown.<\/p>\n
Bynum was booked into the jail for first-degree attempted murder at 4:21 p.m. Monday and will likely appear for a preliminary appearance in the Pacific County Superior Court on Tuesday, July 7, where pretrial release conditions will be set including bail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Long Beach woman charged with attempted murder after knifing Published 5:45 pm Monday, July 6, 2026 The Long…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":388679,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[131,133,132],"class_list":["post-388678","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/388678","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=388678"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/388678\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/388679"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=388678"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=388678"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=388678"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
