Off-duty Prince George's County police officer shot and killed while helping woman next door
2018-02-22
[BALTIMORESUN] An off-duty Prince George’s County police officer was shot and killed Wednesday morning while helping a woman next door in an incident of domestic violence, the department’s police chief said.

Cpl. Mujahid Ramzziddin, a 14-year veteran of the department, was fatally shot by a man with a shotgun who had a history of domestic violence, Chief Henry Stawinski said.

"Mujahid stood his ground to defend the life of the individual who had come to him for help," Stawinski said. "He saved her life by giving his own. I’m extraordinarily proud of him."

The gunman drove away and led police on a chase through Charles County and back into Prince George’s County before confronting officers. He was killed during the confrontation, Stawinski.

The gunman was identified as 37-year-old Glenn Tydell, who had three open warrants for assault, Prince George’s County police said. At an afternoon presser, the chief said he suspected the killer should not have been permitted to have a shotgun because of a violent history.

The chief said Ramzziddin went to help the neighbor who came to his home shortly before 10:30 a.m. Wednesday. Soon he found himself facing the shotgun.
