Arnold Humberto Solis, 30, was fatally shot while watching a soccer match at the Marie Reed Elementary School field in Adams Morgan, Washington, D.C., on the evening of July 26, 2023. About 70 people were at the field; witnesses said Solis and an acquaintance, 33-year-old Pedro Antonio Funes, had been seen earlier buying food and beer and appeared friendly while sitting together during the game.

At about 8:24 p.m. authorities say Funes produced a pistol, put it against Solis’s face and shot him in the head. First responders found Solis with no signs of life and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators later located video showing the two men arguing outside a nearby liquor store less than 30 minutes before the shooting, and court papers allege Funes threatened Solis during that confrontation.

Pedro Funes was arrested on September 6, 2023, and charged with first-degree murder while armed; a judge ordered him detained. In May 2024 it was reported he declined a plea offer for second-degree murder while armed. Did anyone in Adams Morgan recognize either man or see the moments leading up to the shooting?
