Prince William Times: “Opponents of the Prince William Digital Gateway were dealt another blow Thursday when a judge dismissed a second lawsuit challenging the data center development.”
“Both lawsuits were filed by residents late last year in an effort to stop the 2,139-acre data center corridor proposed just north of the Manassas National Battlefield Park from moving forward. Both suffered the same fate: dismissals from two different judges in separate hearings held just a few weeks apart.”
A tractor-trailer overturned on Interstate 95 South at about 6 a.m. Sunday, May 28, 2023, at milepost 143 (Garrisonville Road) in North Stafford.
No injuries were reported, and the mess was cleaned up two hours later. Police diverted all southbound traffic at milepost 148 at Quantico Marine Corps Base.

National Weather Service Baltimore-Washington: “A slow-moving low-pressure system will provide unsettled weather and below-normal high temperatures today through Tuesday.

Further investigation revealed a group of individuals were inside the home when one of the occupants began shooting, striking four males.”
“The suspect fled the home, and the police were contacted. Officers arrived at the residence and located one adult male outside of the home, who was later pronounced deceased at the scene by fire and rescue personnel.

One of the men later died at the hospital as a result of the injuries sustained during the shooting.”
Stafford County Sheriff’s Office: “Shasta Place, 5/25, 8:32 p.m. Deputies J.J. Suh and D.L. Brookman, Jr. responded to a disturbance in the apartment complex. Once parties were separated and the dust settled, the investigation revealed 10-year-olds [girls] were involved in a fight.”
“A parent [34-year-old woman] encouraged her offspring to get pepper spray to defend herself. The child proceeded to get the pepper spray and return to the fracas.

“Among the 81.9 acres proposed for rezoning is the Hillwood Camping Park, home to a number of mobile homes and campgrounds on over 15 acres.”
