Police find stolen SUV in fatal theft in Dumfries | Headlines

A Manassas-area man wanted for murder in connection with a carjacking and fatal hit-and-run last weekend near Montclair was arrested Friday in Virginia Beach.

Earlier Friday, police obtained arrest warrants for Keith Anthony McBride, 41, of 7600 Helmsdale Place in Manassas, charging him with first-degree murder, hit-and-run and grand theft auto, Prince William County Police Lt. Jonathan Perok said in a news release.

McBride was arrested by Virginia Beach police on Saturday, Perok said.

Perok said it appears that car theft was the motive for the crime.

“Currently, there is no known connection between the victim and the accused,” he said. No other suspects are being sought as part of the investigation.

The fatal incident occurred at 6:53 p.m. on July 20 at the Oasis at Montclair apartment complex in the 16400 block of Stedham Circle, according to police. The victim, 37-year-old Jose Vasquez Galvan of Dumfries, was approached by an unknown man in the parking lot. During the encounter, the suspect got into the victim’s gold SUV and began backing up.

Galvan, who was outside, clung to his SUV before it struck another unoccupied car and drove forward, throwing him off and then running over him, police said.

The suspect drove the stolen SUV out of the area before police arrived at the scene.

Galvan was taken to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries and died two days later. Police found his stolen SUV in a Dale City neighborhood on Tuesday.

McBride has numerous outstanding criminal charges in Prince William and Fairfax counties, including charges of car theft and eluding police from June.

Why McBride was not in prison on the earlier charges at the time of the July 20 crime was unclear Saturday.
