Arrest Report

Prepared by IntelliClerk from the document as filed. It is a reading of the record, not a substitute for it — every fact below carries the page it was taken from, and counsel should verify each against the original before it goes into a brief.

What This Document Is

An arrest report of the Fairfax County Police Department, prepared by Officer D. Halloran (Badge 4471) on the night of the arrest and signed by a supervising sergeant the following morning. It records the stop, the field observations, the arrest itself, and the property taken into custody. It is the charging officer’s own account and the earliest written version of the events at issue.

Summary

At approximately 11:48 p.m. on May 29, 2026, Officer Halloran stopped a 2014 sedan on Route 236 near Barkley Street after observing what the report describes as “weaving within the lane and a brief crossing of the fog line.” The driver is identified as the defendant. The report states that the officer detected an odor of alcohol, that the defendant’s speech was “slow,” and that field sobriety tests were administered on the shoulder of the roadway.

The defendant was placed under arrest at 12:19 a.m. and transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center, where a breath test was administered at 1:26 a.m. The report records the result but does not attach the instrument certification. A search of the vehicle incident to arrest is described in a single sentence; the property sheet lists a cellular telephone, a wallet, and a closed container recovered from the trunk.

The narrative runs three pages; the remaining five are the property sheet, the field sobriety checklist, the booking record, and two pages of supervisory sign-off.

Persons Named

• p. 1 Officer D. Halloran, Badge 4471 — arresting officer and author of the narrative.
• p. 3 Sgt. M. Prewitt, Badge 2208 — supervisor; signed the report at 8:05 a.m. on May 30, 2026.
• p. 5 Officer R. Nkemdirim, Badge 5119 — assisted at the scene; no separate statement is attached.
• p. 6 Breath test operator listed only by operator number 1174; no name appears anywhere in the report.

Sequence of Events

• p. 1 11:48 p.m. — Stop initiated on Route 236 near Barkley Street; stated basis is weaving and one crossing of the fog line.
• p. 2 11:56 p.m. — Field sobriety tests begun on the roadway shoulder; the checklist marks two of three as failed.
• p. 2 12:19 a.m. — Arrest; the report gives no time for the reading of implied consent.
• p. 3 12:52 a.m. — Arrival at the Adult Detention Center.
• p. 6 1:26 a.m. — Breath test administered; result recorded on the booking record.
• p. 4 Undated — Vehicle search and property inventory; the trunk container is listed without the time it was opened.

Points for the Defense

• p. 1 Flag The stated basis for the stop is a single lane deviation described in general terms. No dash-camera footage is referenced anywhere in the report, and none appears in the file.
• p. 2 Flag Thirty-one minutes pass between the stop and the arrest, but the narrative accounts for roughly eight of them. The gap is unexplained on the face of the report.
• p. 4 Flag The trunk container is inventoried without a stated time, and the report gives no basis for opening it. Whether it falls within a search incident to arrest is not addressed.
• p. 6 Flag The breath instrument’s certificate of accuracy is not attached and the operator is identified by number only.

Bearing on the Brief

This document supplies the facts for the Motion to Suppress: the basis for the stop, the timeline between stop and arrest, and the scope of the search. The unexplained interval and the trunk container are the two facts most likely to carry an argument, and both turn on material the report itself does not contain.

Three items referenced here are not in the file — the dash-camera footage, the instrument certificate, and any statement by the assisting officer. Each is a proper subject of a discovery request, and until produced, the report stands as the only account of the stop.
