WOODBRIDGE – (Press Release) – On November 5 at 2:08PM, officers responded to a residence located in the 2900 block of Chinkapin Oak Ln in Woodbridge (22191) to investigate a burglary-in-progress. The investigation revealed that two masked men entered the residence and encountered the homeowner. At that point, the suspects fled on foot. There were no signs of forced entry into the residence. No weapons were seen and no property was reported missing. The suspects were only described as black males wearing all dark colored clothing. This incident does not appear to be random. The investigation continues.

PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY — Stanley Bender, who has his name on the ballot to be the next Prince William County School Board Chairman, At-large, has been largely absent from the campaign trail.
He’s raised zero dollars and failed to show up to debates between his fellow candidates Alyson Satterwhite, who is endorsed by Republicans, and Babur Lateef, endorsed by Democrats.
O.W.L. V.F.D members visited more than 55 homes this weekend in the River Ridge community to test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and change batteries. Residents were ready, with new batteries in hand and open doors to welcome the fire fighters.
Occoquan-Woodbridge-Lorton Volunteer Fire Department reminds residents that one easy step can help save their lives and the lives of those around them. Twice a year change the batteries in their smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, test the alarms and remind friends, family, neighbors and fellow community members to do the same.
