Worcester, Massachusetts (AP) — A warrant has been issued for Karen Solomon, a 58-year-old mental health advocate, following the fatal death of her husband, a 31-year veteran police officer in Worcester. The warrant accuses Karen of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Police Chief Paul Saucier revealed that her husband, Kurt Solomon, sustained a fatal injury from a sharp object.
It appears that Karen was last seen on a doorbell camera footage, walking down a street in a simple outfit, just moments after police responded to a call from their home. The public spaces around Coes Pond remain closed as a search involving dive teams and police dogs continues. The city's police chief described Kurt Solomon as an "awesome police officer and an awesome person" who will be deeply missed.
A wake for Kurt Solomon is scheduled for Tuesday, and his funeral will take place on Wednesday. Karen Solomon, who authored two books on the experiences of first responders, and started an organization advocating for their mental health, has been missing for over four days.
