According to the Virginia State Police release,
“at about 10 a.m. Thursday (Feb. 9),
Culpeper Police received a call concerning a suspicious woman sitting in a Jeep Wrangler
that was stopped in a church parking lot in the 300 block of North East Street.
A Town of Culpeper Police Officer responded and engaged in conversation with the woman.
While attempting to retrieve her identification, the woman suddenly closed her driver’s side window
trapping the officer’s arm and started driving away dragging the officer alongside.
The officer repeatedly commanded the woman stop the moving vehicle.
She refused and shots were fired.
The Jeep then wrecked in the 200 block of North East Street.”
