6th Fairfax cutting victim comes forward
Police say they believe another woman is the victim of a man who has been cutting young women and teenage girls at Fairfax County retail stores.
A 21-year-old woman reported Monday that she was cut on June 8 at the T.J. Maxx at the Fairfax Towne Center.
The woman told authorities she felt a pinch on her buttocks, turned around and saw a man picking up clothing. At the time, the woman thought she may have been cut by a hanger.
The incident is similar to five others reported since February throughout the county.

Va. parents indicted in child abuse case
A Prince William County grand jury indicted two Bristow parents on felony child abuse charges for allegedly trapping their children in a feces- and urine-filled room.
John Michael Robey, 33, and Christina Dawn Moore, 26, were arrested in March. Authorities say the two barricaded their three daughters — then ages 4, 2 and 4 months — in a bedroom by nailing drywall across the doorway. The 4-year-old escaped by climbing over the piece of drywall and ran to a neighbor for help.
