Governor’s warrant signed in Severance case

The governor of Virginia signed a warrant Friday for the return of Charles Severance to his state.

Severance, 53, was arrested in Wheeling last week on charges of being a fugitive from justice.

He’s wanted on a weapons charge but also for questioning in connection with three murders in the Alexandria, Virginia area.

Severance has been fighting extradition. He’s been an inmate in the Northern Regional Jail.
