77 ARRESTS MADE, 86 WARRANTS CLOSED OVERNIGHT IN PG COUNTY: The Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office apprehended 77 people, while closing 86 warrants during an overnight operation targeting felony and misdemeanor warrants across the county 🚔
The operation began at around 11pm last night and ended at 6am this morning as part of the 23rd annual National Family Violence Apprehension Detail.
Deputies and officers from law enforcement agencies across the region attempted to locate wanted individuals at 200 locations and served 17 ex-parte protective orders, which are court orders that can provide protection before a full hearing.
The warrants involved a range of offenses, including first- and second-degree assault, stalking, sexual abuse, arson, reckless endangerment, robbery, *rape* and violations of protective orders.
Other warrants closed during the operation involved theft, unauthorized use of a vehicle, malicious destruction of property, *possession of child pornography* and child support matters.
Officers from various agencies were split up into ten separate teams, going address-to-address serving countless arrest warrants throughout the night.
The holding cells officers were using at the Greenbelt police station became so full, that arrestees were taken straight to the Upper Marlboro jail.
Participating agencies included the Prince George’s County Police Department, Maryland State Police, Federal Bureau of Investigation, US Marshals Service, Calvert County Sheriff’s Office and Maryland-National Capital Park Police, along with police departments from twelve municipalities in Prince George’s County.
The Prince George’s County Department of Corrections, Office of Homeland Security and District Court Commissioner’s Office also participated. 🚨
It’s 4am, and I’ve lost track of the number of arrests made so far in PG County.
Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s close to or even over 100 people arrested on open warrants in the span of some five hours. Absolutely wild!
ROUGHLY FIFTY ARRESTS MADE AS WARRANT SERVICES CONTINUE IN PG COUNTY: The sally-port police had been using in Prince George’s County has become so full, that those arrestees are being taken straight to the Department of Corrections in Upper Marlboro.
🚨Around FIFTY arrests have been so far, with officers continuing to serve warrants past the 3am hour 🚨
Never seen anything like this in terms of arrest volume and intensity/precision, going address to address for four hours straight.
HAPPENING NOW: multiple law enforcement agencies across Prince George’s County, Maryland are ROLLING OUT warrant services going into the midnight hour 🚨
The officers, who have been assigned to several different ‘teams’ numbered 1-10, have made at least twelve arrests across the county since 11pm.
Agencies involved include Prince George’s County Police, the Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office, Seat Pleasant Police, Greenbelt Police, Bowie Police, and other agencies.
It is unknown exactly what type of warrants are being served at this time, or if any specific charges are being targeted…
A woman has been arrested on an outstanding warrant as police continue to serve NUMEROUS warrants across PG County this morning 🚔

Another night of trying to vouch for me and other independent feeds being able to do their jobs properly and to the fullest extent… and still no progress made.
The truth was getting out, so it had to be stopped. It’s like being walked over and just having to give in. 🙃🙃🙃
Fairfax County Police’s Fairfax-One 🚁 has been quite busy so far this morning:
-The helicopter initially began circling above the area of the Lorton Train Station. No information is available due to the encryption of police transmissions.
-Fairfax-One then pivoted to the area above Fairfax Hospital on Gallows Road, where it continues to circle the area. Again, no information is available due to the encryption of FCPD’s transmissions.
Hopefully, there will be an update in the morning, otherwise we have no info to provide… #NoVa
A woman has been found stabbed near a Purple Line construction site along University Boulevard in Langley Park, Maryland 🚂
A Prince George’s County police officer was flagged down at around 11:20pm by a woman, telling him she had just been stabbed near 23rd Ave and University Boulevard.
The victim has been taken to a trauma center with a stab wound to the bicep area. (seemingly non life-threatening injuries) The stabbing occurred right by an active Purple Line work zone.
Police continue to search the area near the McDonald’s for the suspect, who is described as a female wearing a white shirt with a red stripe and black pants.
PGPD Station detectives have just arrived to scene and continue to investigate…

HEY, OLD FRIEND! A Montgomery County Police K-9 officer just came across Maryland State Police’s Rockville channel.
The K-9 handler had called out with a crash on the Inner loop of the Beltway/I-495 at Connecticut Ave while “trying to catch up with a car for something else.” What the other car was wanted for… there’s no telling.
This is one of MCPD’s first transmissions available to the public since their encryption in the summer of 2025— over a year ago.
It makes it especially hard while working overnight, when there’s no little to no resources available for reporting… makes you wonder why. 🤔

NOW: what started out as a call for a structure fire in Bethesda unraveled into an apparent domestic disturbance, with burnt food left on the stove and trash everywhere 🚒
Montgomery County Fire & Rescue Services were initially called out for the fire at the Fields of Bethesda Apartments on the 7100 block of Clarendon Road at around 4:45pm.
As firefighters were en route, it was reported that a physical fight had broken out inside of the apartment.
Montgomery County police and firefighters arrived to find the apartment vacant, with food burning on the stove and trash scattered all over the place. It is believed that the residents had fled the scene prior to the arrival of first responders.
The small fire inside has since been knocked, and firefighters remain on scene… @TheDMVLive
