This week there have been several residential burglaries in Prince William and Manassas.

In the afternoon on May 4, Prince William police responded to a call from a residence on Clematis Street in Manassas to investigate a burglary. Officers said that the homeowner told Prince William police that the burglary occurred between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. and there was no forced entry and the entry point was an unsecured window. A Prince William police report stated that a laptop, money, handgun and an iPhone were reported missing.


The Prince William Public Library Foundation, an area non-profit, has awarded the Prince William library system more then $14,000 to fund two new programs.

The first program, 1000 Books Before Kindergarten, is a national early literacy program. The program provides books and ways to incorporate reading into a family routine. With the Library Foundation’s full funding of the program, around 2,000 preschoolers will be able to participate within the first year, said a release.
