Prince William
A coalition of law enforcement agencies, including the Northern Virginia Regional Gang Task Force, City of Manassas Park Police, Virginia State Police, Fairfax County Police and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security were able to make several arrests on February 25, following a gang activity investigation.
The arrests were made in relation to a case involving gang recruitment for a gang known as Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13.
Prince William leaders set an advertised tax rate Tuesday night.
It’s lower than the 4% increase agreed upon last year in the county’s five-year budget plan, but it’s higher than an earlier 1.3% rate increase that would have meant multiple cuts in county services, and pay freezes for county employees.
A community Town Hall meeting hosted by Delegate Luke Torian the Ferlazzo Building in Woodbridge Monday night was an opportunity for elected officials and political candidates to voice their views. It was also a chance for residents in Prince William County to communicate with law enforcement officials.
