STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. -- Sheriff Charles E. Jett says 2nd Lt. Brian Jacobs, 1st Sgt. Neal Robey & 1st Sgt. David Stout are two of th bravest men and women who work at the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office.

Both law enforcement officers were called to a barricade situation last year in Spotsylvania County where an armed man barricaded himself in his home. One Stafford sheriff’s deputy was shot and later recovered. Department officials declined to tell Potomac Local News the name of the deputy who was shot.

Jacobs and Robey were honored along with 43 others at a recent department award ceremony in Stafford County.
