Black male wearing brown shirt with stripes and a jacket, has a diamond piercing in his lip and is reported to be bipolar. Ran from Cornwall ER and assaulted staff. He was involved in a domestic in MD (I think Frederick Co. MD) and took a car without permission (not stolen). He was in the ER due to an accident. Sheriff's office was en route to charge him with DUI and to take custody. He has a connection to a woman in Manassas so he might be trying to get there. MD has at least three felony charges for him and Loudoun County has others pending. Loudoun contacted Fairfax to have FFX3 assist but was unavailable. Helo en route from US Park Police in DC. Perimeter has been established with Leesburg PD and Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.
Mobile command bus is being setup I think right outside Leesburg on north King St./RT15 north.
