Va. man charged with assault for allegedly shooting at police

WASHINGTON — The Franconia man is now charged with assault on law enforcement officers and will next be in court April 11.

Police say Syed Javid, 19, became involved in a barricade situation Wednesday night when officers called to his home were greeted with gunfire.

No officers were hit.

That happened around 5 p.m. Wednesday on Larkspur Drive off Franconia Road.

About 90 minutes later, Javid exited his home and refused to drop a gun and rifle he held at the time, according to police.

Javid was taken into custody after officers fired beanbags and rubber bullets at him. Javid was also bitten by a police dog.
