Firefighters in Northern Virginia remained busy on Monday, April 20, 2026, responding to two structure fires in Prince William and Stafford counties as the region continues to grapple with drought-like conditions and elevated fire risk.
The first incident occurred in Woodbridge earlier that afternoon. Units were dispatched to the Meridian Bay Apartments in the 2900 block of Fox Lair Drive for a reported two-alarm apartment fire. Crews arrived to find heavy fire and smoke showing from a three-story garden-style apartment building, with residents still inside.

Prince William County police responded around 10:23 p.m. April 13 to the area of Centreville Road and Leland Road near Manassas. Investigators said the boy had left his home and was running in the roadway, crossing Centreville Road northbound, when a 2012 Honda Civic hit him. He was not in a crosswalk or safe crossing area at the time. Bystanders performed CPR until the child was taken to a hospital, where he later died.
The driver, identified as Jacinto Josue Ezequiel Jacinto Morales, 30, of Centreville, stayed at the scene and was not hurt. He faces a charge of driving without a license, third offense. His court date is pending, and he was released on a summons. The boy’s name is not being released because of his age.
