Police Activity Closes Road near Lake Arrowhead

STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. – There is apparent police activity along Va. 610 in North Stafford this afternoon.

Readers tell Potomac Local News that a black SUV was blocking traffic in the area of Va. 610 near the Lake Arrowhead subdivision.

Stafford County authorities say they have no information on any police operations in the area.

A reader who sent us a photo from the area noted ATF on the jackets of people on the scene, but agency spokeswoman Janice Kemp said she, too, is not aware of any ATF activity in the area.

We’ll have more if it becomes available.
