Prince William County Police-Involved Shooting Ruled Justified

(Woodbridge)- Five Prince William County police officers are being cleared in a deadly shooting. The Commonwealth’s Attorney says the officers were defending themselves when they opened fire earlier this month because the suspect pointed a rifle at them. The 79-year-old apparently threated to commit suicide to his wife before she called 911. The department’s Office of Professional Standards is still reviewing the shooting and will suggests policy changes if necessary.
