In September 2019, Officer Solie was pulled over by a DPS trooper for driving nearly 100 mph in a 65 mph zone during morning rush hour. He refused to sign the traffic citation and acted unprofessionally toward the trooper. An investigation revealed several prior contacts with law enforcement concerning his driving habits. He received a six-week unpaid suspension from the Phoenix Police Department, where he remains employed. The Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board is considering further action against his certification.
