Stabbing, kidnapping suspect arrested in Carver

A 62-year-old man was arrested Thursday, Nov. 12, in connection to a stabbing outside of Gladstone that left a victim in critical condition.

Just after 10 a.m. a Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office deputy was driving on Highway 224, near Southeast Springwater Road in Carver, when he spotted Allen Lee Johnson, who allegedly attacked a man with a knife and kidnapped a woman the previous day.

The deputy arrested Johnson and lodged him in the Clackamas County Jail. He faces:

• Second-degree assault
• First-degree kidnapping
• Coercion
• Menacing
• Unlawful use of a weapon

The incident occurred Wednesday morning, Nov. 11, at a home in the 5400 block of Southeast Colony Circle. Deputies arrived to find a man with two stab wounds to the abdomen. His girlfriend and a neighbor were attempting to render emergency first aid. Paramedics arrived and took the victim to a nearby hospital, where he is expected to survive the injuries.

The victim’s girlfriend is the one who identified Johnson as the suspect. He allegedly fled the scene of the attack by forcing a woman at bloody knifepoint into a black GMC SUV to drive away from the home. The kidnapping victim was unharmed.
