On Sept. 20, officers responded to the 10000 block of Brandon Way in Manassas to investigate reports of gunshots. There, they found that several gunshots were fired and struck a home.

Officers determined that the incident did not seem random and were able to collect shell casings from the scene.

Through their investigation, officers learned that the suspect was known to the occupants of the residence and had targeted a 32-year-old female acquaintance who resides at the home after making multiple threats of harm to her via text message, according to the police department.
