Camden County Prosecutor Vincent P. Sarubbi, Camden County Sheriff
Michael McLaughlin and Camden City Police Chief Robert Allenbach announced
today that Larry R. Henderson, M/37, was arrested Friday night, Jan.
17, 2003, on a warrant charging him with Felony Murder in connection
with the death on Friday, Jan. 10, 2003, of Rodney Harper, M/37.
Sheriff's officers arrested Henderson without incident at his residence
in the 6500 block of Lexington Avenue in Pennsauken at approximately
8 p.m. Friday.
The victim, of the 1400 block of Greenwood Avenue in Camden, was shot
once in the chest at approximately 3:28 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2003, inside
a residence in the 1100 block of Kaighn Avenue in Camden. He was transported
to Virtua-West Jersey Hospital in Camden and shortly thereafter to
Cooper Medical Center, also in Camden. He died at Cooper at 2:35 p.m.
on Jan. 10, 2003.
Previously, on Jan. 13, 2003, Sheriff's officers arrested Gregory
Clark, M/25, of the 400 block of Wildwood Avenue in Camden, on a warrant
charging him with Murder in connection with Harper's death.
A criminal complaint alleges that Henderson held another individual
at gunpoint while Clark demanded money from the victim. When the victim
did not comply, Clark shot him, the investigation indicates.
Henderson was being held at the Camden County Correctional Facility
in lieu of $300,000 bail, cash or bond. Clark remains lodged in the
jail in lieu of $300,000 bail, as well.
All persons charged with criminal offenses are presumed innocent unless
and until proven guilty in a court of law.
