From today's VCDL ALERT
In the first case that I know of in Virginia, a gun owner who was open carrying has gotten SWATTED - where someone makes a false report to 911. In this case the claim was that the gun owner had robbed a 7-11. In reality the gun owner simply went into the 711 to purchase something and then left.
The good news is that due to the professionalism of the Fairfax County Police, the gun owner, when found and stopped, was not put in unreasonable danger while FFC PD investigated the charge.
At tonights VCDL meeting I will play the 911 recording, which I just received. The victim, Robert Dickens, as well as some representatives of the Fairfax County PD will be there and will talk to the group about the incident and SWATTING.
For those who cant attend tonight, I will have more information on the incident, how VCDL is going to handle any other such events, etc. in the next Alert.
....
See you tonight!
Fellowship starts at 7:30 PM and the meeting is called to order at 8:00 PM.
The meeting is open to the public, so bring along some friends and family!

This is sufficiently of note that I am going to try to make both meeting, even if it means going North of the Ni after dark.
stay safe.
