Manhunt intensifies for armed woman after veteran Massachusetts police officer found dead at home

A woman connected to a veteran Massachusetts police officer who was found dead inside their home remained on the run Wednesday, as police released new video of Karen Solomon and warned the 58-year-old suspect is still believed to be armed.

The Worcester Police Department released the updated video and photo of Solomon as officers pressed their search into a second day and urged the public to remain vigilant.

Worcester police have not publicly identified the officer.

The New England Police Benevolent Association, however, identified him Wednesday as Officer Kurt Solomon, a 31-year veteran of the Worcester Police Department and a member of the association.

The association said Solomon dedicated more than three decades to serving Worcester and was known as an "incredibly dependable officer, colleague and friend."

"Officer Kurt Solomon answered that call for more than three decades, and his service, friendship and dedication will not be forgotten." The group said it was mourning alongside Solomon's family and fellow officers as the investigation continues, adding that it had "full confidence" in authorities working to determine what happened and locate the person being sought.

Public records reviewed by The Associated Press show Kurt and Karen Solomon co-owned the Wildwood Avenue home and that Kurt identified Karen as his wife in a 2016 bankruptcy filing.

A Worcester city councilor also publicly referred to Karen as Kurt's wife Wednesday.
