Manassas City Police said two men died and a third was in stable condition after a shooting Wednesday morning at United Rentals, 9415 Wellington Road. The joint release with Virginia State Police named the dead as Ricky Lamot, 48, and Christopher Serrano, 33. Police said Marvin Grant, 37, of Charlotte, N.C., an employee, fled in a silver Toyota Camry before officers arrived at 7:14 a.m. Virginia State Police said Grant died after a self-inflicted gunshot wound during a stop on Interstate 81 in Augusta County.
The afternoon release contradicts Chief Douglas W. Keen’s morning briefing, which said all three workers were in critical condition and that Grant was still being sought after leaving Northern Virginia. The release does not name the hospitals Keen gave. The morning alert described a gray Camry or Corolla. The release says the car was silver. Motive was not given. Tips go to Detective Speights at 703-257-8041, Detective Dranko at 703-257-8046, or Crime Solvers at 703-330-0330.

Prince William planners say two Dumfries-area data-center filings next to Four Seasons still have “substantial issues,” a man once sentenced to death in a 2001 Bristow killing walked out of jail Monday after 25 years, Amazon settled with King George on the Birchwood campus, and Manassas Council will hear interim-mayor applicants Oct. 5.
According to InsideNoVa, Prince William planning staff told two developers that separate applications for a total of six data centers beside the Four Seasons at Historic Virginia 55-and-over community off Interstate 95 have “substantial issues and deficiencies” and cannot be supported in their current form. William Cooley of Atlantic Funding LLC filed a solo application May 22 for a 60-acre site at 16251 Dumfries Road; Barrie Peterson of Southgate Business LLC filed June 3 on a neighboring 79-acre parcel.
