Summary
An arrest warrant issued two days ago charges Karen Solomon with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon causing serious bodily injury in the death of her husband, off-duty Worcester officer Kurt Solomon.
Police said Kurt Solomon died from injuries caused by a sharp object, and Chief Paul Saucier declined to say whether investigators believe Karen Solomon is alive or dead as the search entered its fourth day.
Ring video showed Karen Solomon walking near Westside Animal Clinic minutes after Kurt Solomon was found dead Tuesday, and police later traced a 5:30 a.m. 911 caller's number and voicemail to her before losing track of her.
Coes Pond parks in a 20-acre west-side recreation area were closed Friday as dive teams searched nearby; police said she should be considered armed and dangerous and warned the public not to approach her.
Kurt Solomon, a 31-year veteran of the Worcester force, will be buried Aug. 26, while investigators said no search area has been ruled out and his service weapon was still at the home.
