Dale City Man Wanted For Grand Larceny, Assault and Battery

The victim had minor injuries.

Dale City man Clayton Holly is wanted for grand larceny and assault and battery after an incident in which a Woodbridge woman was reportedly assaulted and robbed, Prince William County police spokesperson Jonathan Perok said. 

On Sept. 4 at about 6 p.m., police responded to a report of an assault in the 13700 block of Gilbert Road. Police reports said the 27-year-old victim told police that she and Holly, an acquaintance of hers, were in an argument. 

"During the encounter, the accused assaulted the victim and took her phone," Perok said. "The victim was eventually able to get the phone back and contacted police. Following the assault, the accused grabbed the victim’s laptop and car keys and exited the residence. The victim confronted the accused outside of the residence, at which point, the accused slammed the laptop on the ground rendering it inoperable. The accused then fled the residence in the victim’s vehicle."
