LOS ANGELES, May 27 (UPI) -- A former Los Angeles Police officer, wanted in connection to a California homicide, was nabbed in Mexico after an exhaustive two-month search, the Chihuahua attorney general said.
Henry Solis, an LAPD officer for less than a year, had been wanted since March in the shooting death of Salome Rodriguez, 23, after an alleged bar fight. Chihuahua state authorities said Solis, 27, resisted arrest but no shots were fired when he was taken into custody in Juarez, across the Rio Grande from El Paso, Texas. He was deported to the United States on Tuesday and is being held in federal custody.
