Two Fairfax County police officers, including the coordinator of the department's new wellness program, have been charged with unlawfully possessing anabolic steroids without a prescription, police said yesterday.


William R. Petracca, 43, of Lake Ridge, and Robert F. Cahill Jr., 35, of Annandale, were arrested Tuesday night on the misdemeanor charges and released after agreeing to appear in court, police said. Petracca, a 20-year member of the force, was coordinator of the wellness program and assigned to the Public Safety Training Academy. Cahill has been with the department eight years and was assigned to the Mount Vernon District. Both men have been on leave with pay since March, when an investigation was launched.
