Prince William Co. man arrested in connection to fatal overdose of minor

Prince William County Police say that they have arrested a Woodbridge resident in connection to the death of a 14-year-old who took counterfeit Percocet laced with Fentanyl.

Officers arrested 21-year-old Latae’veion Naveiour Woods Friday after an investigation with the Special Investigations Unit, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

The investigation identified Woods as the drug distributor and he was taken into custody without incident on May 11.

Officials added that their investigation further revealed that Woods did sell the drug laced with Fentanyl to the 14-year-old.

Police continue their investigation into the teen’s death. Additionally, police say they have not connected Woods to the 15-year-old who died from an overdose on April 24.


After nearly 50 years, Dale City Music is closing

After nearly five decades serving musicians, students and families from the same Dale Boulevard location, Dale City Music is preparing to close its doors, ending a 48-year run as a locally owned music store and community resource, according to multiple sources. The store, at 4367 Dale Blvd., is slated to close July 31. An employee, Adren Harris, told InsideNoVa the owners decided to shut down amid rising commercial rents and concerns about taking on unsustainable debt. “Our last day of normal business will be this Friday,” Harris said. Harris said the store’s owners determined closing was preferable to continuing under increasingly difficult financial conditions.
