Fraud suspect engages in standoff with Stafford deputies

A Stafford County Sheriff's' patrol car.

Stafford County Sheriff's Office: "On October 27th, Deputy X.D. Bates responded to a residence on Onville Road to answer legal questions. The victims advised they hired someone to complete construction on their home, but the suspect had yet to do so. While at first it appeared to be a civil matter, as Deputy Bates dove further into the investigation, he discovered the suspect might be defrauding the pair."

"On November 2nd, Deputy Bates located the suspect and confronted him about the job. The suspect advised he ran out of money for the job, but that it was his responsibility to complete the job and he would 'get it taken care of'. During their encounter the suspect provided a false identity, the same identity he gave to the victims."
