Fairfax County Police received a call from a crisis center on Wednesday, October 31 at 4:35 a.m., regarding a suicidal person. Officers went to the 9800 block of Natick Road in Burke to check on the welfare of an adult man. When they arrived, a man matching the description left in a car. Police followed the car to the 5100 block of Woodland Way, where the car stopped. Police observed the man with a handgun in his possession and began negotiations. The man pointed his gun at an officer. That officer fired one shot, striking the armed man. Edward Connor, 71, of 9835 Natick Road, was transported to Inova Fairfax Hospital where he was pronounced dead. No officers were injured.

I thought opsgear WAS swatpro911 under a new name?

It must have snowed last night in Ffx Co. Check out the slush in the street, snow around the stop sign, etc.

Yeah i was out last night on my "bi-weekly traffic sign licking excursion" and you should've seen the look on my face when i got to that one.....it's a good thing i carry an emergency kit with some PAM and a spatula!


anyone able to make out the route # on the top of the sign in the foreground?

Share some pics of what? and when? That first pic is clearly taken in the winter as evidenced by the lack of leaves on the tree and the SNOW piled up around the stop sign in the distance. If you need attention please go seek it on another website.

Oh, cruising for trouble are you? I'm not the one who works in store named, ________. Went to some trouble to select that particular employer, didn't you? :)
