WOODBRIDGE, Va. — A 13-year-old boy is facing multiple charges after he threatened a family member with a knife.
On July 15 at 10 p.m., officers went to a home located on Coachman Terrace in Woodbridge to investigate a reported domestic incident.
Investigators say a 46-year-old woman was in her room when her 13-year-old family member came in and attempted to take her phone.
When the woman refused to hand over the phone, the young teen pulled out a knife and threatened her, police said. Another family member intervened, and the boy eventually ran away from the house.
No injuries were reported by the police department. While investigating the incident, officers located suspected illegal narcotics inside the teen’s room.
The boy was charged with robbery, abduction, and possession of a controlled substance. His court date is still pending and he is being held at a juvenile detention center in Virginia.
