Witnesses at the scene described two of the suspects as White males—one heavyset and wearing a green shirt, blue jeans, and white shoes, and the other dressed in a blue shirt with khaki shorts. Authorities believe multiple individuals were involved in the assault and confirmed that several witnesses were present during the incident.
Despite a coordinated search by Leesburg officers, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, and the Virginia State Police, no suspects were apprehended following the incident. Officers conducted a canvass of the surrounding area but were unable to locate the individuals believed to have fled the scene on foot.
