A Pentagon police officer who tried to stop a car robbery has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder in relation to the deaths of two people in Maryland earlier this week, police said.
The Pentagon Force Protection Agency (PFPA) officer, identified as David Hall Dixon of Takoma, was off-duty at the time of the incident and was on his way to work, Takoma Park Police Department Chief Antonio DeVaul confirmed during a press briefing on Friday.
