A viewing is being held for a plainclothes narcotics officer who was killed in a shootout at a Maryland police station.
Prince George’s County Detective Jacai Colson was killed March 13 by one of his fellow officers after a man began firing at a police station in Landover. A wounded suspect, 22-year-old Michael Ford, was arrested and now faces more than two dozen charges including second-degree murder.
Thursday’s viewing for the 28-year-old Colson, a four-year veteran of the department, is being held from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Borgwardt Funeral Home in Beltsville.
Another viewing will be held Friday morning at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden in Upper Marlboro, followed by a funeral service. Thursday’s viewing and Friday’s funeral are open to the public.
