Solano-Saldana is wanted for her role in the death of Evelina Channel McKenzie, 37.
On Sept. 26, at about 1:20 a.m., HPD said a black Dodge Charger was speeding on Clearwood Drive near Almeda Genoa Road.
The Dodge reportedly veered off the street, hit a light pole, rolled over, and hit McKenzie, who was walking by.
McKenzie was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said four people were inside the Dodge at the time of the crash, three of who were detained for questioning.
Officers previously reported the driver didn't own the car and had met the passengers at a club earlier in the night.
The Dodge driver, later identified as Solano-Saldana, was seen running away from the scene by witnesses.
Solano-Saldana was subsequently charged in the crash as the suspect driver, HPD said.
