POMONA, Calif. (KABC) -- Pomona detectives are heading to Texas on Tuesday to bring back former Los Angeles Police Department officer Henry Solis, who is accused in the shooting death of Salome Rodriguez Jr.

According to a federal affidavit, after a fight last March outside a bar in Pomona, Solis chased down Rodriguez and opened fire, killing him.

Solis was handed over to U.S. authorities, who were holding him in Texas.

However, Pomona police told Eyewitness News that detectives plan to bring Solis back to California either Wednesday or Thursday.
