Facebook Twitter Yahoo Buzz E-mail Bengals receiver Chris Henry died
on Thursday after falling from a moving truck in Charlotte, N.C., on
Wednesday, according to police. He was 26.
The football player had apparently been involved in an argument with
his fianc�e at a home when she drove away in a pickup truck. Henry
jumped onto the bed of the truck, but fell out of the vehicle about a
half-mile away.
A police spokesperson said homicide detectives were assigned to the
case, but that no charges have been filed.
A seemingly perpetually troubled player, the hot-tempered Henry was
arrested at various times for marijuana possession, gun possession and
assault, earning him the epithet of "one-man crime wave" from a judge
� and his ouster from the Cincinnati Bengals in 2008.
But after the Bengals' owner gave Henry a second chance, the athlete
seemed to have straightened out, staying out of trouble and focusing
his off time on his fianc�e and the three children they were raising.
