STAFFORD — There are 2,089 homes planned to be built in Stafford County all needing wells. With some wells underperforming in a rural section of the county, officials ordered a study of the available groundwater residents in those homes would use.
In 2016, residents who lived along Mount Olive Road in the western portion of the county voiced concerns that their wells were slow to recharge. They also voiced concerns about potential impacts to their wells from a nearby developing subdivision at the time.
Fire crews were called the Landing at Cannon Branch in Manassas, a new development on Gateway Boulevard behind the Manassas DMV.

Attempted Abduction | Impersonating a Police Officer – On May 17 at 7:44AM, officers responded to the 8000 block of Sudley Rd in Manassas (20109) to investigate a suspicious person. A 43-year-old homeless woman reported to police that an unknown Hispanic male entered her tent area and identified himself as a police officer. The suspect was wearing dark clothing, had some type of portable radio with an orange earpiece attached, and a pair of handcuffs. During the encounter, the suspect grabbed the victim and attempted to handcuff her. The victim resisted and asked to see the suspect’s credentials, which he refused. A struggle ensued and the suspect eventually fled the area on a bicycle when the victim yelled for help. Further investigation revealed that same suspect allegedly went to another homeless camp in the area and identified himself as a police officer to two other men. Officers checked the surrounding area for the suspect who was not located. No injuries were reported. The investigation continues.
