Police: Two hospitalized by separate shootings in Reston and Groveton

(Updated at 3:55 p.m.) A shooting in a parking lot near Isaac Newtown Square and Wiehle Avenue in Reston left one individual hospitalized with life-threatening injures last night (Tuesday).

Police believe the individual was shot in an act that does not appear to be random, authorities wrote in a social media post.

“The victim remains hospitalized and there are no apparent threats to the community,” police said.

Though it wasn’t publicized until nearly 2 a.m. today, officers were called to the 1900 block of Isaac Newton Square for the shooting at 11:42 p.m. yesterday, the Fairfax County Police Department said in a news release.

Police believe the shooting occurred inside the victim’s vehicle, according to the release.

That shooting took place just minutes before officers were summoned to a different shooting in the 6300 block of South Kings Highway in Groveton, the FCPD said.

Upon arriving at the scene, officers found an adult man who had been shot in the lower body, according to police. The man was taken to a local hospital, where he remains, as of this afternoon.

“Detectives believe the shooting occurred after a verbal argument and continue to investigate to identify a suspect involved,” the FCPD said.

Police said they continue to investigate both incidents.

Reston-based DNA Technology Company Finds New Leads in 2006 Double Murder

With the help of a Reston-based company that specializes in DNA technology, local police have new leads on the 2006 murders of two elderly Springfield women.

Marion Marshall and Marion Newman, who were both in their 70s and lived just two miles apart from each other, were killed in separate incidents. Autopsy results list their cause of death as strangulation and blunt force trauma. DNA evidence collected from the scene indicated both women were sexually assaulted and that the same offender was responsible for both murders, according to police.

After the case turned cold, detectives turned to Parabon NanoLabs, which specializes in DNA phenotypic and genetic genealogy analysis, to develop composite sketches of the suspect. Police previously ran DNA samples gathered from the scene across a nationwide database of samples, but failed to find any leads. Parabon uses its technologies to predict physical appearance and biological relationships from unidentified DNA evidence. 

The company provided three sketches based on what the suspect may look like at the age of 25, 40 and 55.

 “We are committing countless hours and all available resources to close these cases and provide long-awaited answers to victim’s families – and bring those who committed these awful crimes to justice. I am extremely thankful for our dedicated detective bureau and victim services staff for all they do in seeking closure.”

Marshall was last seen visiting a grocery store on the morning of Aug. 14, 2006. Police believe that the murderer approached her as she unloaded groceries at her home on the 6600 block of Bostwick Drive. She was found dead by a friend later that evening, according to police.

Newman was found dead by a friend inside her home on Nov. 21, 2006 after she visited her mother at a senior living community in Springfield.

Detectives urge anyone with information about the crimes to call the major crimes bureau at 703-246-7800 or submit an anonymous tip online or by texting “TIP187” to 274637.

All attendees ages six and up are encouraged to take part.

The Reston Triathlon also returns to Reston this weekend. Everything you need to know about the event is available online.

If that isn’t your cup of tea, there’s still plenty of other things to do in the area this weekend:
