UPDATE:
A Washington, DC man is facing charges in #Loudoun County for the armed robbery of a Sterling bank last month.
Amobi C. Agu, 36, was arrested last week by the Washington Metropolitan Police Dept. and held on felony warrants obtained by the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office. An investigation conducted by the LCSO connected the suspect to the January 2 armed robbery of the Bank of America in the Dulles Crossing Plaza.
In the robbery, the suspect approached a teller, displayed a firearm, and demanded cash. The suspect left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money. There were no injuries sustained to anyone inside the bank.
The suspect is facing charges in Loudoun County for armed robbery, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Agu remains held in Washington, DC on unrelated charges pending extradition.
The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office is working with other law enforcement agencies to determine if the suspect is connected to similar cases in the region. The LCSO would like to thank the FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Montgomery County Police Department and the Washington Metropolitan Police Department for their assistance in the investigation.

Who’s ready for some wintry weather Wednesday?! ❄️
This is a tricky forecast with the rain/snow line impacting totals in your neighborhood, especially near the Beltway. Roads will definitely be impacted, so plan ahead & consider staying home, if that’s an option for you. 🏡 I see a fire in the fireplace & Christmas cookie baking in my future Wednesday! 🍪🎄

Loudoun County Government
With COVID-19 cases rising throughout Virginia, Governor Ralph Northam has announced new, targeted measures to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
The following mitigation measures will take effect at 12:01 a.m. on Monday, December 14, 2020:
• Modified Stay-at-Home Order: All individuals in Virginia must remain at their place of residence between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. Exceptions include obtaining food and goods, traveling to and from work, and seeking medical attention.
• Universal mask requirement: All Virginians aged five and over are required to wear face coverings in indoor settings shared with others and when outdoors within six feet of another person. This order expands the current statewide mask mandate, which has been in place since May 29, and requires all individuals aged five and over to wear face coverings in indoor and outdoor public settings outside of their own household. These changes are consistent with new CDC guidelines (https://bit.ly/2Lm61Zb), released December 4, which recommend universal wearing of face coverings.
• Reduction in social gatherings: All social gatherings must be limited to 10 individuals, down from the current cap of 25 people. Social gatherings include, but are not limited to, parties, celebrations, or other social events, regardless of whether they occur indoors or outdoors. This does not apply to religious services, employment settings, or educational settings. Restaurants and retail stores are already governed by strict social distancing requirements, and are not included in this limit.
• Continued limits on dining establishments: Virginia restaurants are currently governed by strict social distancing and sanitization requirements, which remain in place. The on-site sale, consumption, and possession of alcohol remains prohibited after 10:00 p.m. in any restaurant, dining establishment, food court, brewery, microbrewery, distillery, winery, or tasting room. All restaurants, dining establishments, food courts, breweries, microbreweries, distilleries, wineries, and tasting rooms must close by midnight.
• Teleworking: Employees who can telework are strongly encouraged to do so.

Loudoun County Public Schools
To All LCPS Families and Staff Members:
On Thursday, December 10, the Virginia Department of Health published data showing that both Loudoun County core indicators have exceeded the thresholds established by the School Board for returning to 100% distance learning. In addition, the Virginia Department of Health has retroactively updated metrics for earlier dates in December that indicate both metrics had exceeded their thresholds as of December 6.
Given this new information, and the expectation that metrics will stay above the thresholds for the foreseeable future, LCPS will revert to 100% distance learning for all students beginning Tuesday, December 15.
The Loudoun County School Board had determined that LCPS would return to 100% distance learning if both indicators exceed the established thresholds. In-person instruction would pause if Loudoun County stays above those thresholds for five consecutive business days.
The metrics, referred to as Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) Core Indicators, are:
1. Total number of new cases per 100,000 persons within the last 14 days reaches more than 200; AND
2. Percentage of RT-PCR tests that are positive during the last 14 days reaches more than 10%.
The metrics are reported by the Virginia Department of Health (https://tinyurl.com/y2k3vt8r), and the VDH reporting is posted to the LCPS COVID Case Data webpage (https://tinyurl.com/yxbnj3am) each business day.
If one of these metrics drops below its action threshold on Friday, December 11, or Monday, December 14, the five-day counter would reset to zero and restart when both metrics again exceeded their thresholds. LCPS does not anticipate that happening before December 15.
We understand that this process is disruptive for families of students who have been participating in hybrid in-person learning this fall. The safety and well-being of all students, staff members, their families and the community continues to be our highest priority, and this decision is being made consistent with our commitment to achieving that objective.
LCPS will further discuss plans for using these metrics to determine when hybrid in-person learning could resume at the December 15, 2020, School Board meeting.
Thank you for your continued support as we adapt to the changing conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic in Loudoun County.
Sincerely,
Eric Williams, Ed.D.

It's less than a week until Christmas! If you are looking for a place to find all the great local Christmas light displays, then check out: https://www.facebook.com/LoudounChristmasLights/. I’m the admin for this page and I have compiled over 160 area displays to view. Go to the pinned post for the map to these displays. If you have a display you’d like to be listed, please send me your photos (the pinned post will also explain how to submit.) Please like and follow this page as well, and share with your friends. Enjoy the Holidays!!! - Bill
Looking for a fun crafting activity to do with your child? Join us at Claude Moore Park for our WINTER GIFT WORKSHOP on Saturday, December 14 from 3:30-5 pm; $5, ages 4 & up. Pre-registration required; adult chaperone free. Register at www.loudoun.gov/webtrac for activity 26172 . Questions? Call 571-258-3700
My name is Bill Incatasciato, and I am the admin for my page “Loudoun Christmas Lights,” My family and I love Christmas Lights and enjoy driving around the area to see the wonderful displays that other people set up. Unfortunately, I could never find a reliable listing of Christmas Light displays in Loudoun County, so I decided to create a comprehensive list of large and creative displays three years ago.
I wanted to help other people find local Christmas displays in Loudoun County and to provide a platform for those who do large and/or cool displays to show them off to others. This page is intended for people in Loudoun County (and maybe really close by) to post their homes so that others may find them and appreciate the cheer they have created on their properties.
This is the third year that I have been doing this, and hope that it continues to grow and become a valuable resource for our community. I ask that you help in one or all of the following ways:
• Like/follow and share my page with others.
• Send me photos and locations of Christmas light displays so I can post onto the page. It doesn’t have to be just your house. I do believe we should share the joy that others create.
• Visit the displays and enjoy the effort that was put into them.
When posting a picture, please include an address, hours, (if applicable), any restrictions/limitations (i.e. no head lights, don't block driveways, accepting donations, etc…,) and any other commentary. Please note, this a family friendly site, and I will review each submission prior to posting. Thanks for helping light up Loudoun County for the holidays!

America, the legalization of ma*****na is not the answer.
The effort to legalize ma*****na is an absolute cop-out to make more money for the states. It is not a sincere effort to confront the hard core issues of ma*****na misuse and substance abuse in New York and states across America.
Ma*****na is extremely addictive, and it literally destroys both mental and physical health in the lives of misusers and abusers.
However, legalizing medical ma*****na, where it is clearly medically warranted, watched and carefully administered by trained medical professionals, is the wiser choice.
Currently, we have blatant discrimination in ma*****na arrests all over America in which African-Americans and Latinos are arrested in far greater percentages than white people. An effort is greatly needed to fight double standards.
Summonses to appear in court, instead of arrests, can free up much needed funds for substance abuse prevention.
The unjust, racist double standard regarding arrests should be stopped, but not the illegal use of ma*****na.
Most of all, a plan and push for substance abuse prevention and training is needed to transform the deeply wounded soul of America. When someone is totally high on ma*****na and is committing horrible acts of physical, verbal, mental and sexual abuse, the laws against ma*****na use are needed.
