VALLEJO, Calif. (KGO) -- A manhunt is on in Solano County for two suspects wanted in the murder of a man in South Lake Tahoe last month.

Two men have already been arrested: one in Sacramento, another in Vallejo. That's also where the search is focused for two other suspects.

Investigators from the El Dorado County district attorney's office were in Solano County Thursday, suited up, ready to head out in pursuit of two suspects who are wanted for a murder at a South Lake Tahoe motel on Jan. 30.

"What we know so far is that Dennis Wright, age 40, was in Tahoe with his girlfriend. An altercation occurred and gunshots were fired and Mr. Wright succumbed to his injuries," said David Stevenson, an investigator for the district attorney's office in El Dorado County.

It happened in the parking lot of the Beverly Lodge during a struggle after an apparent drug deal went bad.

"If you see either one of these suspects, and their pictures are also on our Facebook at El Dorado County District Attorney's office, call 911 if you see them."

Last week, police arrested two Vallejo men, 18-year-old Tristan Batten and 20-year-old Harvest Davidson for their alleged roles in Wright's murder.

Now, they are looking for these two: 24-year-old Domenic Seanlee Randolph and his cousin 26-year-old Dion Jermaine Randolph Vaccaro. The two men are considered armed and dangerous.
