Centreville Woman Wanted In Fairfax Faces Drug Charge In Stafford

STAFFORD, VA — A 27-year-old Centreville woman wanted for failing to appear in court in Fairfax and Warren counties was arrested by a Stafford County Sheriff's deputy on July 9 in connection with an assault and battery report.

Deputy J.L. Jones responded around 11:56 a.m. for the report of an assault in the area of Triumph Lane in Stafford. The victim told Jones that she was attacked by a woman she knew, who then fled the scene, according to the daily incident report.

Meanwhile, Deputy E.M. Brooks found the suspect, who was identified as Gabrielle Rose, at the Marathon Service Station at 3884 Richmond Highway. The deputy determined that Rose was wanted out of Fairfax County for failing to appear in court and Warren County for contempt of court, according to the report.

During the arrest, Rose exhibited signs that she was intoxicated. A search by Brooks revealed that Rose was in possession of suspected controlled substances.

SCSO charged Rose with assault and battery, public intoxication, and possession of controlled substances. She was also served the two outstanding warrants and held in the Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.

Rose was arrested on Aug. 17, 2023 for petit larceny and obtaining a credit card number in connection with a larceny in Warren County. She was released on her own recognizance, according to court documents.

A judge in Warren County issued an arrest warrant for contempt of court after Rose failed to show up for a March 3, 2023 hearing, according to court documents.

On March 15, Rose was arrested in Fairfax County, where she was charged on two felony counts of possession of schedule I or II drugs and a misdemeanor charge of being drunk in public, according to court records.

Three days later, Rose was released on her own recognizance and she was given a June 25 court date. However, a bench warrant was issued after Rose failed to show up in court, according to court records.
