Stafford County Sheriff’s Department: “On January 24 at approximately 6:05 p.m. the Sheriff’s Office received a reckless driver complaint. The caller advised a gray Chevy van with Washington DC tags was traveling on Warrenton Road in a less than desirable manner. This included driving between lanes, driving on the sidewalk, and even striking a road closure barrier sign.”
“When the call was broadcasted over the radio, First Sergeant D.W. Fetterolf and Sergeant E.E. West discovered they were behind the swerving vehicle at the intersection of Warrenton Road and Banks Ford Parkway. Having somehow forecasted the future better than your local weatherman, the duo activated their emergency equipment to conduct a traffic stop. Instead of pulling over to the right like many would when involved in a traffic stop, the driver continued rolling at a slow rate of speed before finally stopping in the middle lane of Lichfield Boulevard.”

Stafford sheriff’s office: “An Ohio man who thought he could outrun the police in North Stafford last night ended up just as disappointed as Dallas Cowboys fans this morning. On January 14th at 10:32 p.m. Deputy J.W. Ahern attempted to stop a Toyota Sequoia on westbound Garrisonville Road near Eustace Road for not having any rear lights. Instead of stopping for the minor traffic violation, the driver conducted a U-turn and accelerated eastbound on Garrisonville Road, initiating a pursuit.”
“The suspect sped up to 85 mph before turning left onto Center Street and then right onto Barrett Heights Road. Deputy Ahern provided updates to other deputies in the area as the suspect sped up to nearly 80 mph and turned right onto Onville Road toward Garrisonville Road.”
