Conroe Police are searching for a Honduras man charged with an early morning fatal shooting of a Conroe resident.

Officers have been unable to locate Solis as of late Sunday night. Anyone with information to Solis’ whereabouts can contact Conroe Police Investigator Jason Waller at 936-522-3270 or the Conroe Police Department at 936-522-3200.
