<p>&#8220;She basically landed almost in front of my mailbox,&#8221; dad Tony Kurek told the Sun.<br />
Baltimore PD identified the officer killed as a married four-year veteran of the force assigned to the Parkville precinct.<br />
The fallen officer&#8217;s husband on Tuesday morning told 105.7 radio&#8217;e, The Norris &; Long Show: “I’m just still grieving. I don’t know, I just feel like talking about it is definitely better than not,” Tim Caprio told Ed Norris, one of the show’s hosts and a former Baltimore city police commissioner.<br />
Caprio was responding to a call around 2 p.m. Monday on Linwen Way to investigate a suspicious vehicle in the area. A 911 caller reported a black Jeep Wrangler near her home, and said three “suspicious subjects got out of it and were walking around homes.” The suspects had broken into the home, and that the first arriving officer was on the ground after confronting the driver of the Jeep, the caller told the dispatcher.<br />
When the responding officer asked the suspect to step out of the vehicle, he did not comply, instead the driver sped forward, ramming the officer with the vehicle. She landed about 20 feet away.<br />
The suspects&#8217; getaway Jeep was later found abandoned in front of a home on a nearby street.<br />
Harris was arrested a block from where the Jeep was parked.</p>

<p>During an interview Harris admitted to police that he was sitting in the driver seat while the three other suspects committed a burglary.<br />
He told officers he saw Caprio drive up the block and that she got out of her car and demanded that the get out of the Jeep. Instead, he “drove at the officer,” the documents said.<br />
Police would not confirm whether the Jeep had been stolen, but they believe it was also involved in an earlier burglary.<br />
The remaining suspects, who police considered armed and dangerous, extended into the evening. All three are now in custody.<br />
Detectives have verified that the group were involved in burglaries in the area, police said. Officers were in the area Tuesday to canvass for property stolen during the burglaries.</p>
