tbimm Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Just heard on the radio the police are suspending their investigation and will not be charging Henry. No link right now. Edit to add link. FLORENCE – Bengals Chris Henry and Reggie McNeal were cleared today of any involvement in a roadside altercation which left a teenage boy with a black eye earlier this month. Florence Police called a press conference to say the two were not suspects. Investigators have identified two 21-year-old Florence residents as suspects, Florence Police Capt. Linny Cloyd said Friday. He refused to release the suspects’ names. Cloyd said investigators were asked to leave the teenager’s home on Wednesday as they attempted to clarify “discrepancies” in his accounts of the assault. Henry and McNeal’s names only became public after the teenager called a local television station last week to tell his story, Cloyd said. Henry and McNeal are cooperating with investigators. Cloyd said the pair told detectives there were somewhere else when the assault took place. Investigators have not been able to verify that, Cloyd said. The teenager told investigators that he was walking down the road with a friend when a black Cadillac Escalade pulled up and a man jumped out of a passenger-side door and asked them if they knew someone. When the teens said they were not the person he was looking for, the driver punched the teenager. Cloyd said the teen alleges that a second man stepped out of the driver’s side door and pushed him to the ground. Investigators reported the teen had bruising around the eye, but Cloyd wasn’t sure if he received any medical treatment. The assault allegedly happened shortly after 11 p.m. June 8 at Wetherington Boulevard and Mt. Zion Road. When investigators spoke with the teen the next day, the boy handed them a computer printout of Henry’s picture downloaded from the Internet and said that was one of the men who attacked him, Cloyd said. He isn’t sure how the teenage fingered the wrong person in the assault because the teenager and his family “abruptly” stopped cooperating with police. Cloyd said the teenager would not be charged with filing a false report because investigators confirmed an assault took place. This is exactly the kind of crap that will be brought upon you when you earn a rep as an idiot with alot of money. Question now is........ Did he have nothing to do with it, or did he put the correct amount of zero's on the check which resulted in the sudden lack of cooperation?

Since the police have identified two 21 year old males as suspects,I'd go with he had nothing to do with it. http://www.wcpo.com/news/local/story.aspx?...97-61032e62a96e Edit:To add news link Edited June 16, 2007 by Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
