POMONA, CALIFORNIA -- (MINS) It's not everyday a cop kills someone and then actually has a warrant for murder issued for his arrest.
Henry Solis of the Los Angeles Police Department was off duty when police say he killed Salome Rodriguez, Jr. The incident began as a fist fight and quickly escalated when Solis decided to pull out a gun and shoot Rodriguez.
The 23-year-old victim was shot at least five times according to sources as reported on People.com.
After Solis didn't show up for work Saturday, he was connected to the shooting and named a person of interest in the case. Pomona police officially issued a warrant for his arrest on Monday.

He could be ANYWHERE! Even in another state by now.
Solis had no history of disciplinary issues since joining the LAPD last June. "He was a good officer, as far as we know," Lt. Ronald McDonald told the Times. "Whatever happened, happened."

Authorities said Solis knows he is wanted and that they are searching for him.
This man could be riding the bus or the train right next to you. He could in the car besides you at a red light. Or seated at the table across from you while at your favorite spot. Or even sipping coffee right in the same cafe.
The victim's mother urged Solis to turn himself in, according to the Daily Bulletin.
"Why are you running?" Lidia Angelica Rodriguez asked. "Just turn yourself in. I can't believe someone with a badge and a gun could do that to him."
