ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A man charged in the slayings of two police officers in a tiny Alaska village was accused of viciously attacking the same two officers after they responded to a call about an intruder last year, court records revealed.

Assault and other charges filed against John Marvin Jr. in the alleged attack on Hoonah police officers Tony Wallace and Matt Tokuoka were dismissed in December.

Now Marvin, 45, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder on allegations that he ambushed the officers as they chatted in front of his home late Saturday. He surrendered Monday after a long standoff with authorities.
