It’s been a rough start to the New Year for the Prince William County Public School division.
On Jan. 6, it snowed heavily across portions of Prince William and Fairfax counties as a clipper system “over performed” and peppered frozen precipitation across the area, resulting in more snow than forecasters originally thought the storm would bring.
Jazmin Lopez, 20, of Manassas, knew that she needed to make a change in her life, and ANU offered her an opportunity to work toward her degree in a growing field.
Her neighbor was the first to recommend American National University, which has a campus in Manassas located on Liberia Avenue.
“They were promoting the school [at Gold’s Gym], when [my neighbor] met a recruiter from ANU,” Lopez said, continuing, “She was giving me information, but I wasn’t so sure about going to school.”
On January 14, a 42-year-old man of Woodbridge was hospitalized and died after being stabbed in his living room. According to the report, the victim’s step son stabbed the man several times, while the mother of the suspect called police. The suspect’s brother tried to stop him and once police arrived to the scene, the two were fighting, police said.
The suspect was taken into custody and subsequently arrested.
Police arrested a man they say broke into a house in Woodbridge’s River Oaks neighborhood and tried to rape a woman.
