A female fugitive accused of killing her police officer husband inside their home has been spotted walking down the street in flip flops in new surveillance footage.Â
Karen Solomon, 58, is on the run after cops found her spouse Kurt Solomon, 57, dead inside their Massachusetts home during the early hours of Tuesday morning.Â
On Thursday, Worcester Police shared footage of the alleged killer wife strolling outside a veterinary medical facility about a mile from the crime scene.Â
Solomon can be seen slouching slightly as she walked past the animal center, and at one point glancing over her left shoulder.Â
The Ring security video was filmed at about 5.40am on Tuesday – roughly 10 minutes after officers found her husband dead inside their Wildwood Avenue home.Â
Worcester Police said detectives are ‘still actively searching’ for Solomon, who is believed to be armed and dangerous. They did not disclose how her husband died.Â
‘We ask the public to remain vigilant and if you see her or can provide any information, please contact the WPD,’ the department said.Â
Kurt Solomon served as a police officer with the Worcester force for 31 years, and his former colleagues are now having to investigate his untimely death. He was a father to two sons.Â
