FCPD gang unit seizes large fentanyl haul
Detectives from the Fairfax County Police Department’s Gang Investigations Unit seized over 9,400 suspected fentanyl pills and two stolen firearms after arresting a man in Seven Corners. [Correction: the body cam video shows the arrest happened in Culmore.]
On Aug. 2, detectives were on active patrol in the area of Glen Carlyn Drive and Arglye Drive in Culmore when they spotted a man wanted by police and took him into custody.
During the arrest, detectives discovered a stolen firearm and 250 suspected fentanyl pills.
During the investigation, they seized an additional 9,200 suspected fentanyl pills and another stolen firearm from the suspect’s home.
Marco Domingo Juarez, 19, of Annandale, was arrested and charged with possession with the intent to distribute a Schedule I/II narcotic, unlawful possession of a firearm with narcotics, possession of stolen property, and possession of a concealed weapon. He is being held at the Adult Detention Center on no bond.

Lock him up for life! I can’t stand drug dealers like this anymore! )<
I don’t understand why they said it was in 7 corners. It was in Culmore.
Agree. Seven Corners is two miles west of Culmore.
I was thinking about this, and I feel like Patrick Henry and Rte. 7 is part of Seven Corners. The Mosque too. But then Munson Hill Towers not really.
It looks like, according to the Census bureau, the north size of Rte 7. all the way to Glen Carlyn is Seven Corners, But nothing south of Rte 7.

this was on the south side of rt 7, behind USPS.
I am hopeful that our Commonwealth’s Attorney, Steve Descano, and his prosecutors, will assist this young man who has made some bad choices, but has so much potential.
Hopefully, they can reach a plea deal under which Mr. Juarez will participate in a high quality divisionary program, such as Steve’s pioneering culinary arts program for nonviolent offenders, and also ensure Mr. Juarez is registered to vote to participate in America’s democratic process.
That would be a wonderful win-win.
That top picture shows what I think is a Glock 19 with a shield arms conversion (metal magazine release) to accommodate increased capacity on the metal magazine. It takes a bit of skill to convert that thing. I also see a nice red dot with 15 rounds of hollow points.
I’m 98% confident that kid with the 3 stooges haircut didn’t set up that pistol. This tells me he’s part of a sophisticated organization that is arming low level dealers like him with the latest, most effective weaponry for the task at hand. That is cause for serious concern.
Stolen firearms, from where, how long ago? Obviously they were not legally purchased since you have to be a legal resident to purchase. Were the firearms reported stolen by the owners?
