Shots fired leads to arrest of Dumfries, Stafford men

STAFFORD -- (Press Release) Two suspects believed to be behind a shooting of a residence in the northern end of the county were arrested on Tuesday evening by deputies with the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office.

On November 27, 2018, at approximately 6:11 p.m., a caller reported hearing a shot and believed a bullet entered his apartment located in the 1000 block of Providence Street near the Stafford Marketplace shopping center.
