Burglary while Armed [Previously Released] – On July 28th at 3:08AM, police responded to the 14200 block of Princedale Dr in Woodbridge (22193) for a burglary in progress. The victim, a 24 year old man of Woodbridge, reported to police that three unknown, masked men forced their way into his home. Once inside, the men proceeded up the stairs to the victim’s bedroom. At that point, a confrontation ensued between the victim and the men. One of the men was armed with a shotgun which he fired towards the victim. The victim returned fire with his own handgun and stuck the suspect before the men fled the home. No injuries were reported by the victim and no property was reported missing. Later that day, on July 28th, detectives from the Violent Crimes Bureau were able to identify the armed suspect involved in this incident as the accused after he went to hospital in D.C. for medical treatment for a gunshot injury to his forearm. Following the investigation, warrants were obtained against the accused who remains in D.C. awaiting extradition back to Virginia. This incident was not random and the investigation continues to identity the two remaining suspects.
