FALLS CHURCH, Va. A man is facing charges after police say he tried to stab a security guard at an Islamic center in northern Virginia.
Fairfax County Police said officers responded to a report of a man with a knife at the Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center on Saturday afternoon.
According to police, a suspect later identified as Jonathan Lincoln, 41, of Falls Church tried to stab the guard and then pointed the knife at several people.
No one was injured.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, issued a statement Sunday urging Washington, D.C.-area mosques to step up security measures in light of the attack.

After nearly a year of online learning, parents in the Washington region were thrilled to hear announcements from public schools, some of them tumbling out rapid-fire last week, that in-person learning will resume next month for students who choose it.

Instead, school officials in Maryland and Virginia have been hiring classroom monitors who will fill out school staffing - in some cases supervising classrooms as students continue to do online lessons.
