WASHINGTON — An off-duty Takoma Park Police officer involved in a March 2015 crash that killed three people has been indicted for a 2014 road rage incident.
Officer Travis Ala, 28, has been indicted by a Prince George’s County grand jury on charges of first and second degree assault and use of a handgun in the commission of a crime of violence.
Prosecutors say on July 6, 2014, Ala was driving on Route 50 westbound in Bowie, when he encountered the victim’s car in the left hand lane. Angry that the victim’s car wasn’t traveling fast enough, Ala swerved around the vehicle, pulled in front of it and applied his brakes.
The victim’s car avoided Ala’s. As the off-duty-officer’s car attempted to pass, a witness in the victim’s vehicle says Ala pulled out a black handgun and pointed it at them.
The victims began taking pictures of Ala, while pulling over to avoid him.
Eventually, Ala drove away. The victims were able to get Ala’s license plate number and police traced the vehicle to him.

What a nut job.
Well said. Thanks for the find Joe. I also like this quote by the Great Thomas Jefferson.
"A Government that is big enough to give you everything you want is STRONG enough to take everything you have."
He is not a Nut Job....But the New OBAMA POOOOOOLICE
Police here act the same. Off duty cops get drunk and show off. Act like they're real big men carring their guns drunk.
This cop is a murderer. As with all drunk drivers. You know you can kill someone and do it anyway. That's murder. And the prior incident. Wow. Was indicted and still on paid leave. Being charged at that. Then gets drunk already on paid leave kills three and stays on paid leave! The police police themselves! Complete bull shit. Three people may be alive today if this cop was treated like a citizen for his crimes instead of the entitled police.
