n February 15, 2023 after consultation with the Commonwealth Attorney’s Office, investigators with the Prince William County Police Department's Crash Investigation Unit charged the driver of the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado involved in the fatal crash that occurred in the area of Kapp Valley Way and James Madison Hwy. in Haymarket (20169) on February 6, 2023.

On February 15, 2023, detectives with the Prince William County Police Department's Violent Crimes Bureau charged a 58-year-old man in connection with the death of his infant son which stemmed from an incident that occurred at the family’s then-residence located in the 9600 block of Lafayette Ave in Manassas (20109) in November 1984.

Based on information and evidence collected during the investigation, detectives linked the person of interest, identified as a 19-year-old man from Manassas, as being responsible for the shooting death of the victim and malicious injury to a second man that occurred during the altercation. The alleged suspect and the deceased were reportedly known to one another. The investigation revealed the suspect confronted the victim over an owed debt prior to the shooting.
