Two Arrested in Woodbridge Double Shooting of Teens

Prince William County said they've arrested both men wanted for shooting two teens last weekend in Woodbridge.

The shooting was reported during the early morning hours last Sunday in the 13400 block of Keating Drive.

Police said 19-year-old Christopher Weaver and a 15-year-old friend went to another house to pick up the 15-year-old's younger sister, relatives said. Words were exchanged at that house, and shortly after Weaver, the 15-year-old and the girl entered a house on Keating Drive, someone knocked on the door.

Weaver's mother opened the door to two men, Weaver's cousin Stephanie Goodwin said, and they started shooting. Weaver was hospitalized and later pronounced dead. The 15-year-old is expected to recover.

Prince William County Police said they arrested Christopher J. Coward, 35, in connection with the shooting Monday. He's being held behind bars without bond on murder charges.

Bryan L. Patterson, 25, was arrested Thursday.

Weaver's death marked the 6th homicide in Woodbridge so far this year.
