3 p.m. UPDATE FROM POLICE REPORTS
Virginia State Police have charged a New Jersey man with multiple felony counts following an early morning incident on Interstate 95 in Prince William County. David A. Servais, 23, of Millville, N.J., is being held at the Prince William County Adult Detention Center on the following charges: threatening to bomb a mode of transportation; abduction by force; drunk in public; possession of synthetic cannabinoids (spice); and fugitive from justice.
A Greyhound bus was en-route from Richmond, Va., to New York City, when one of its passengers, Servais, began verbally threatening the other passengers. At one point he positioned himself at the front of the bus, thus preventing anyone from being able to exit the vehicle. He then barricaded himself in the bathroom at the back of the bus.
At 3:31 a.m. Wednesday (Nov. 21), Virginia State Police received a 911 call about Servais making threats to the passengers and troopers immediately responded to the bus, which had stopped on the shoulder of the northbound, I-95 HOV lanes at the 156 mile marker in Dale City.
All 38 passengers and the driver were able to safely exit the bus. Prince William County Fire and Rescue made arrangements to have a county transit bus transport the passengers off the interstate to a local Greyhound Terminal.
Servais was taken into custody without incident. Due to the nature of his threats, State Police with the assistance of a Stafford County explosives-detection canine thoroughly checked the bus for any suspicious packages. None was found.
