Intoxicated man charged after assaulting deputies during arrest and at jail

STAFFORD, VA – A 21-year-old man from Mineral faces multiple felony charges after allegedly resisting arrest, providing false identification, and assaulting several deputies during and after his arrest in Stafford County early Sunday morning.

The incident began at 4:16 a.m. when Deputy M. A. Holub was dispatched to a residence on Edwards Drive for a disturbance. The caller reported that a man had shown up intoxicated and refused to leave the property. The individual was identified as Bradlee Sheedy.

Sergeant S. C. Jett located a man matching the description walking along the side of Deacon Road. Deputies noted that Sheedy exhibited clear signs of intoxication and initially gave false identification when questioned.

As deputies attempted to take Sheedy into custody, he began actively resisting arrest. The situation escalated at the Rappahannock Regional Jail, where Sheedy reportedly struck multiple deputies while continuing to resist.

Sheedy was formally charged with four counts of assault and battery on law enforcement officers, four counts of obstruction of justice, providing false identification to law enforcement, and public intoxication. He remains held at the Rappahannock Regional Jail.
