(KABC) -- A female murder suspect wanted for gunning down her long-time <br />partner was shot and killed by Santa Ana police Sunday, according to family members. <br />The shooting happened shortly after 8 a.m. in an alley on the 800 block of South Townsend <br />Street. <br />Santa Ana police say two officers in separate squad cars confronted a woman in the alley armed <br />with what looked like a real gun. As officers approached, an officer-involved shooting ensued. <br />The woman was transported to UCI Medical Center where she later died. <br />Family members confirm the woman was 35-year-old Jessica Gonzalez. Authorities had been <br />looking for her for three days. <br />Orange police suspected Gonzalez of gunning down her long-time partner, 44-year-old Jennifer <br />Solorio. <br />Residents on the 2000 block of East Palmyra Avenue in the city of Orange heard the gunfire <br />Thursday afternoon. Solorio was found on the sidewalk suffering from gunshot wounds. She was <br />transported to a hospital but later died. <br />A relative of Gonzalez says family members are grieving the deaths of both women, because <br />Solorio was like part of their family. <br />Solorio's daughter told Eyewitness News that her mother and Gonzalez had been involved in a <br />romantic relationship for 13 years. <br />Details about the circumstances leading up to the officer-involved shooting have not been made <br />available but neighbors say they heard at least four gun shots. <br />Police said they recovered a replica hand gun from the crime scene. <br />"There is a weapon in the alley way that does not belong to the officers," said Santa Ana police <br />Cpl. Anthony Bertagna. "At this point, that's all the facts that we know." <br />No officers were injured during the incident. <br />Dozens of evidence markers were seen in the alley. The shooting will be investigated by the <br />Orange County District Attorney's Office which is routine protocal following officer-involved <br />shootings. <br />(Copyright ©2013 KABC-TV/DT.
