A woman from Bristow has died after a crash on Prince William Parkway.
Police were called to the intersection of Balls Ford Road and the parkway, near Gainesville, at 7:47 a.m. after a vehicle hit struck a utility pole.
The Prince William County Government notified the public over the weekend of a new waitlist for people who need the coronavirus vaccine.
As it turns out, the Federal Government cannot fill the state’s orders for new vaccines, which has delayed the inoculation process for those who are 65 years or older, as well as school teachers who were hoping to get the vaccine and return to the classroom.
Two shootings and a suspicious package at a 7-Eleven made for a busy weekend in Stafford County for the Sheriff’s Department.
At 10:15 am on Sunday, deputies were called to shots fired call at 1130 International Parkway, near 6 Bears and a Goat Brewery. Once they arrived, they found a man in his 40s with a gunshot wound, sheriff’s spokesman Shawn Kimmitz told viewers in a video posted to the department’s Facebook page.
