On Monday, November 8, 2021, at approximately 9:45 pm, a Riverdale Park Police officer observed a car linked to a shooting in Riverdale Park on October 31, 2021. The officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop on the car, but the driver fled. A pursuit was initiated. The pursuit ended in the 4900 block of East-West Highway. The two occupants of the car began to flee on foot.
The preliminary investigation revealed that one of those suspects, Albarran-Dominguez, fired at a Riverdale Park Officer. That officer returned fire. During the exchange, the officer was shot. He has since been treated and released from the hospital. The preliminary investigation also suggests Albarran-Dominguez shot at a Greenbelt Police Department officer, striking his cruiser. That officer was not hurt and did not discharge his duty weapon.
At approximately 2:00 am, a Bladensburg Police Officer observed Albarran-Dominguez in the area of 57th Avenue and Emerson Street. After a short foot chase, the suspect was apprehended. He was armed with a gun at the time of his arrest.
Albarran-Dominguez is charged with shooting and injuring the Riverdale Park Officer as well as shooting at the Greenbelt Police Officer. He is in custody of the Department of Corrections.
Investigators are working to identify the second suspect who fled from police.
Any questions about the involved Riverdale Park Police, Greenbelt Police, or Bladensburg Police officers should be directed to those respective agencies.
