A 16-year-old boy is in custody after being accused of first-degree murder for allegedly hitting a Baltimore County police officer with a car, according to charging documents.
Three other suspects -- all teenage boys -- were also taken into custody in connection with the Monday killing of officer Amy Caprio, police said.
The incident began as the teen sat in a Jeep Wrangler while the three other suspects burglarized a Baltimore County home, according to the documents.
Caprio responded and the teen, Dwanta Anthony Harris, fled down the street, according to the documents.
Someone saw the Jeep Wrangler drive directly at Caprio, striking her and then fleeing the area, according to the documents.
Harris admitted that he drove at the officer, the documents said.
He abandoned the Jeep a short distance away and was captured a block from there, the documents said.
Caprio suffered "traumatic injuries" and was later pronounced dead, according to the documents.
Harris was charged as an adult with first-degree murder, police said. He is being held at the Baltimore County Department of Corrections in Towson and is set to appear at a bail review this afternoon.
The slain officer would have been a four-year veteran of the department this July, police said.

“Police have not confirmed how Caprio was fatally injured in a suburban neighborhood Monday, but witnesses reported hearing a pop before seeing a Jeep run her over.”
Even though we all know this is a double-tier hate crime, white and police victim, they ‘ll skate on that particular charge. Mosby and Rawlings-Blake ought to be defendants in a civil suit for inciting such deaths.
I like “dazzling urbanite,”’myself.
Dwanta. Sounds like s two year olds response to a request. Now, it’s gonna be “Bend over. boy. “. “Dwanta!!!!”
This officer decided not to shoot.
Maybe that NAACP leader in South Carolina who tried to use race to lie his way out of a traffic stop the other day will call on blacks to stop killing whites now? Maybe not.
That became clear when Goodell and Company refused the Cowboys’ request to honor their 5 murdered cops.
Mosby and (then mayor) Rawlings - City of Baltimore.
This incident - Baltimore County.
Dwanta go to jail?
Too bad Maryland did away with the death penalty, this animal needs to be put down.
So sad. RIP officer.
Moot point. As a minor, he can't receive the death penalty anywhere in the US.
Give him time. He will be out of jail in a couple of years. He won’t be a minor the next time he kills someone.
Charged as an adult with murder 1.
fixed it...
MS-13 might make him an honorary member.
Is your point that the sick racist policies of the mayor and DA of Baltimore didn’t have an impact beyond the city boundary, when the county is governed by people of exactly like minds as Rawlings-Blade and Mosby? Blacks of the county were too stupid or uninformed to know what was going on in the county seat, when the entire nation was aware of it, and blacks throughout the US were protesting and acting out? You get an “F” for effort; not buying the implausible stretch.
Whatever skippy.
Just sayin ya got yer city and county mixed up.
Is the Sun mixed up, too?
