FREDERICK COUNTY, VA. – Deputies have been busy the past week, responding to over two dozen calls of broken windows throughout Frederick County, according to the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office.

Captain Aleck Beeman stated in a Sunday evening (Jan. 21) media release that incidents have occurred in the Stephens City area, the Senseny Road area, the Clearbrook area, the Northwestern Pike area, and the Front Royal Pike area.

The victims reported finding the window(s) of their vehicle and/or residence had been broken with what appeared to be a BB or pellet gun.

Beeman stated that several victims have reported hearing the window break from the impact. The most recent case involved a woman who was driving when her rear vehicle window was shot out.

Anyone with any information about these incidents is encouraged to contact the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office at 540-662-6162 or contact Crime Solvers at 540-665-TIPS. Tipsters can remain anonymous, and a tip that results in an arrest could lead to a cash reward.
