Worcester Police have been looking for Karen Solomon, 58, since Tuesday morning after they discovered Kurt Solomon, 57, dead inside a house.<\/p>\n

Karen Solomon is believed to have been “armed and dangerous,” according to Worcester Police Chief Paul Saucier and Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early.<\/p>\n

“In regards to this case, we want her for questioning. She was at the house. We’d be able to ask her [questions] with regards as to what happened at the house,” Early told reporters at a news conference Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Karen Solomon is the founder of First HELP, a first responder suicide prevention non-profit. The group helps officers dealing with mental health situations and raises awareness for suicide prevention for first responders and their families.<\/p>\n

Following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, Karen Solomon spoke with ABC News<\/a> about first responder suicides.<\/p>\n

“What brought the officer to the point of suicide, and why couldn’t that officer get help? And once we can answer those two questions, we can assign it a line of duty death designation,” Solomon told ABC News in the March 2021 story.<\/p>\n

The DA said other people were at the house during the incident, but wouldn’t give further details as the investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n
