LAPD Rookie Wanted on Suspicion of Murder

lapdPOMONA, Calif. (AP) — An arrest warrant has been issued for a rookie Los Angeles policeman suspected of killing a man during a fight in Pomona while he was off-duty.

Pomona police say they obtained a murder warrant Monday against 27-year-old Henry Solis (soh-LEES’).

He’s suspected of shooting 23-year-old Salome (sal-oh-MAY’) Rodriguez during a confrontation in the street while off-duty early Friday. Police say both had been at a bar earlier.

The Ontario warehouse worker was shot in the lower torso.

Police say Solis should be considered armed and dangerous. He might be driving a brown or tan 1992 Ford pickup.

Los Angeles police say Solis joined the force in June. He was assigned to the Devonshire Division in the San Fernando Valley. He had not yet completed his probationary period.
