PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MD — A 20-year-old man has been charged with the shooting of a Riverdale Park police officer and shooting at a Bladensburg police officer. Josue Albarran-Dominguez faces assault, gun offenses and other charges stemming from the Nov. 8 incident.

A Riverdale Park police officer spied a car linked to a shooting that had occurred in Riverdale Park Oct. 31.
