It’s been a busy few days for area fire departments, with crews responding to several significant incidents. Here’s a recap of the latest:
Units rushed to the 13500 block of Haversack Lane in Woodbridge last night after neighbors reported a house fire. Upon arrival, crews found flames pouring from the rear of a single-family home. Fortunately, the house was unoccupied at the time, but it sustained severe damage and has been deemed unsafe by the Building Official.

Meet Panda, a charming and friendly dog currently available for adoption at the Manassas City Animal Shelter. This two-year-old pup was found as a stray, and despite efforts to locate his owner, no one has come forward to claim him.

Two weeks into Vindman’s two-year term, half of those cases have been closed.

A part of Prince William County’s Fatherhood Initiative, the free Father & Daughter Dance is a signature event of the initiative. It’s hosted by the Department of Social Services.
“The Fatherhood Initiative is dedicated to equipping fathers with the resources and support they need to nurture healthy relationships with their children. Through workshops, forums, and community events, we aim to help fathers strengthen family bonds and leave a positive, lasting impact on their children’s lives,” Fatherhood Engagement Coordinator Jeffery Faulkerson said.
“I saw on the Ring doorbell, a guy with a big check and flowers,” said Shelly’s daughter Vicky. They are now $10,000 richer.
Shelly entered the Publishers Clearing House a few times before and won small prizes but continued to enter their drawing. This time it paid off – hefty, $10,000. However, PCH has given away bigger prizes in the past and continues to have drawings in the millions.
