A MESSAGE FROM SHERIFF FALLS

The men and women of the Sheriff’s Office join me in wishing the residents of Fauquier County a healthy, safe and Happy New Year. The holidays are already over, but 2025 rushed in like an angry lion! As we recover from the first major snowstorm we have experienced in a few years, we need to prepare for more possible inclement weather this winter.

This time of year increases the risk of unsafe road conditions and frequent car collisions. With the colder temperatures, we have a greater chance of snow on the roads, as well as hidden patches of ice. Please avoid being on the roads during inclement weather and give the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) a chance to safely clear snow from the slick roads and spread sand and sodium chloride to help with the ice.

Please be careful on the roads, slow down and allow plenty of time to get to your destinations. Keep your seat belts fastened and drive sober! Also, remind your inexperienced teen drivers how to safely navigate the roads and discourage them from driving when conditions are not safe.

High winds in the winter also cause trees to fall in the roads and power lines to come down. The Sheriff’s Office receives calls when this happens so please be observant.

We also want to be vigilant about special care of your pets and livestock at this time of year. Most don’t handle frigid temperatures well and need shelter from the cold winds and a warm place to sleep. Be sure they have fresh water to drink because their water bowls freeze quickly outside.

Be prepared if the power goes out. Be sure your flashlights have batteries, and you have warm clothes and blankets available. Check in on your neighbors and loved ones.

Thank you for your continued support of the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office. Stay safe Fauquier!

Sincerely,

Jeremy A. Falls
Sheriff

Working together, law enforcement and our local communities will make a positive impact for the future.
