Prince William
Police say they have in custody the man accused of shooting a 28-year-old man in the lower body on January 23.
The shooting happened at the Maplewood Apartments on Peakwood Court near Manassas.
Prince William police say the bus driver who hit and killed a man at a county public schools transportation center last month will not face charges.
From police:
On Friday, and rightly so, Prince Willam County Public Schools were closed for high winds that wreaked havoc on the region falling trees, blowing shingles off homes, as well blowing the water out of Neabsco Creek.
Today, Prince William County Public Schools will open two hours late in large part due to the nightmare traffic scenario anticipated to unfold on area roads Monday morning.

RICHMOND – The abduction and slaying of a 19-year-old Norfolk woman prompted General Assembly approval of legislation to create an Amber Alert-like system for “critically missing” adults.
The “Ashanti Alert” called for in HB 260, sponsored by Del. Jerrauld Jones, D-Norfolk, was approved by the Senate on Thursday and now awaits the signature of Gov. Ralph Northam to become law.
