Ice blankets the ground, sidewalks, and streets this morning.
We’ve seen cars in ditches, and we’ve got reports like this one about a major crash and closure of a portion of Interstate 95 in Spotsylvania County:
WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Despite the majority of the Virginia Railway Express Board leaning toward killing a proposed commuter rail extension to Haymarket, Chairman Gary Skinner decided not to take a vote on the matter.
Skinner instead took an informal poll of Board members Friday morning on whether to continue studying an 11-mile expansion of VRE service from Manassas to Gainesville and Haymarket or to adopt an alternative by relocating the railroad’s Broad Run station about a mile east, closer to Manassas City.
DUMFRIES, Va. — The robbers went inside the bank and put a gun to the manager’s forehead.
The United Bank branch just outside Dumfries has been robbed at gunpoint twice in the past nearly three months. On Wednesday, two men walked into the lobby of the bank on Route 1 about 2 p.m, pulled out handguns, and demanded cash.
