Good morning – As we approach Flag Day on June 14th the local district Boy Scouts invite you to retire your worn or tattered flag properly with honor at their two Flag Collection Centers.
The scouts man these two centers the second and fourth Saturdays from 9am-1pm. The collection centers are located at both the PWC Landfill and Balls Ford Compost Facility. Huge Cheers to our scouts!
OmniRide buses that are used to take commuters from Prince William County to Washington. D.C. will continue to operate.
The transit system’s $56 million budget keeps commuter, and local buses running for the next year and includes a mixture of ride fare increases, service cuts, and administrative savings to include lower-than-budgeted diesel fuel costs. Overall, it’s good news for an agency that earlier this year faced a $9 million budget shortfall and discussed cost-saving measures like converting its commuter bus fleet to feeder buses only serving Metro stations.
The body of a 21-year-old Manassas man was pulled from the Rappahannock River.
More in a police press release:
A woman was rescued from an elevator that stopped working.
Fire and rescue crews were called to a building at 820 Belmont Bay Drive at 9:14 a.m. There they found the woman trapped inside an elevator inside the six-story condominium complex.
