STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. — Deputies responded to a reckless driving report and ended up finding two teenagers with stolen food from Buffalo Wild Wings and detailed murder plots, according to a news release from the Stafford County Sheriff's Office.
The report was made on Tuesday, June 16, near Austin Ridge and Cabinet Maker drives in Stafford County. Investigators were told that a vehicle went off the road and struck a speed limit sign.
Responding deputies did not find the vehicle during an initial search, but tracked it down later that evening at Wawa on Garrisonville Road.
Both suspects inside the vehicle were detained.
Deputies found unopened alcoholic beverages and a tray of food on the vehicle's dashboard. After looking at security video from Wawa, investigators determined the suspects stole the alcoholic beverages from the store.

Deputies then found opened alcoholic drinks, multiple knives, medical items and a notebook detailing a murder plot.
The sheriff's office said they determined the notebook was owned by Louis Conely, 19, of Stafford.
Conely and the other suspect, who was not named because they are a minor, developed two detailed murder plots against the minor's family.
