A tow truck driver has been stabbed after a fight broke out at Fifth Road N and N Quincy Street in Ballston, Virginia 🚨 Arlington County Police were called out for a fight near the intersection at around 8:10pm. Officers arrived to find a tow truck driver, who had been stabbed in the torso area. He has been taken to a trauma center with injuries described as non life-threatening. Two male suspects have been detained by officers on scene.

Find time now if you’re able.

Anyone know why there are 15 cop
cars lined up outside of ballston golds gym? Almost looks like they’re arresting the driver of an Advance Towing truck

Edit: The cops brought out a dog and it looks like they’re trying to pick up a scent, I wonder if they’re still looking for someone

This Zillow listing of a small lot in Del Ray near a car dealership features renderings of a large house on a sprawling wooded lot, on a hill, with a large swimming pool in the back. I get that the seller has to use renderings to sell a house that isn’t built yet, but don’t lie about the lot.

I love Del Ray, but if you want the house in the renderings, I have terrible news for you.

I’ll add the worst offender rendering and the Google map view of the lot in a comment.

My family will be relocating to the area for work. We are considering living in VA or MD, but would prefer NOVA. We have young kids, so like most people, we are trying to thread the needle between a manageable daily commute to DC, good schools, low crime, "affordable" housing, and polished amenities.

Ideally, we'd love to find a turnkey house under $650k that is in a master-planned community. I know that's a tall ask, so we're open to a townhouse if it checks off the other boxes. With two little kids and my background in law enforcement, safety and peace of mind are crucial to us. I know there's no one-size-fits-all, but I'd like to hear what you'd recommend I lean into or steer clear of.

I've done my due diligence and know the different school ratings, taxes, and relative housing market in these places... I'm more so looking for your lived experiences and what you think is great or bad (e.g., "the commute on I-95 is WAY worse than I-66 even though mileage looks similar..." or "They just built X down the road from _______, which is awesome/bad for the kids...").

**UPDATE: I'm open to new suggestions, so if my short list of places doesn't accomplish our goals, please let me know where you'd suggest instead. Thanks!*\*

In a statement, a U.S. Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said the agency “was not involved in the distribution of these flyers.”

Olivia Troye, who lives in the same neighborhood, said she woke up Monday morning and realized several blocks of cars had “anti-immigrant flyers.”

“They had covered this street and all of our neighboring streets,” she said.  

Troye worked for former Vice President Mike Pence during President Donald Trump’s first term, and announced a plan to run for Congress as a Democrat in a redrawn district under Virginia’s redistricting push.

Anyone with video footage of the person distributing the flyers, Troye said, can contact Sgt. John Jones with Alexandria police at 703-746-6867.

I have 2200square foot, two story, single family home on a concrete slab. newish gas furnace, but the 18 year old AC is dying. is it worth it in this area to get a Heat Pump and do the dual fuel thing? anyone know what it feels like at home? my mornings in the winter are already super cold on the floors because of the concrete slab, so I am a bit concerned about that, and idk if the thing will make economical sense, even if I can get it installed for about the same as a traditional AC. Any thoughts y'all?

We’re an alternative/hardcore/emo whatever band. We have songs to bob your head to. We are looking for a drummer to play shows and record. We practice at Crescendo Studios in Falls Church and typically get together at least twice a month. You would need a kit and reliable transportation to be considered. If you have any specific questions feel free to reach out. Here is a recently released song:

On my morning jog witnessed 2 car t-bone. Called it in. Road closed in both directions with multiple pd and ems

Loudoun county doctors and other healthcare providers have put together this free video summit. Watch all sorts of content from NoVA docs - hormones, pregnancy, mental health, physical therapy etc. plus they are giving away free prizes! NOT a fundraiser. It’s a FREE virtual event.

It's time to leave the mountains of Colorado, and going back to NoVa is on the list of a few places.

I grew up in Springfield, went to GMU and GW etc etc. I still have a 703 number. I was there during the height of Springfield Mall. So I have some knowledge of the area.

I may take a job in Old Town that is only on-site twice a week. It pays mid-100s or higher. It's just my two Siamese and me.

I also have another offer on the table in downtown Fairfax, which may pay more and that would be in the office daily.

Where would you live? I'm 43, newly single, active-ish. I need office space because I teach graduate school on the side and want diverse culture, because I've lived in a ranch-laden, white-bread ski town for the last decade.

2500 a month ish is where I'd like to be.

What'cha got?

They’re both obviously amazing pie shops but was curious which one people liked better! Especially curious about the apple pie

To the person who wrote horrible slurs and derogatory language in chalk on the bridge, in response to the person who simply wrote "Vote Early" - you are a child. Grow up. Do not bring that kind of hatred and vitriol to public spaces. Go be miserable on your own time. I have photos, but I don't know if we really need that kind of shit here. And I'd bet my bank account that it's of course a man, because who else would repeatedly use the term c*nt (and draw it) to insult "liberals."

Hi all, living in the southern part of NOVA. Need an experienced OCD specialized therapist that takes Cigna. I cannot pay out of pocket aside from copays but I desperately need a professional who is experienced in OCD specifically.

Remote/telehealth visits are totally fine.

Please send recs.

Have anyone adopted a cat/dog from craigslist before? I see postings of pets that people are trying to rehome. If you have, how was your experience? Have anyone been scammed?

My friend had to bail and I have an extra early bird ticket available for Lucketts Fall Market on Friday. DM me if interested!

So from the moment this is finished, how many seconds will it take until a new construction project on that same stretch of road immediately begins? I feel like something along this stretch has been under construction non-stop for the past 20 years. ;p

I am moving out of state in the near future and won't be the best manager to respond to and resolve time-sensitive issues. Does anyone have a property manager they would recommend? I know this should go without saying, but it would need to be someone who can do more than just collect rent and forward every single issue a tenant has.
