He died on Thursday morning after he fell from the back of a moving pickup truck in Charlotte, N.C Wednesday afternoon, the police said.
He died after an argument with his fiancée Loleini Tonga. The NFL Star Chris Henry and Tonga were engaged in hot arguments that ended in a fatal accident involving the star receiver. Chris Henry got serious injuries and was on life support equipment in Carolinas Medical Center.
Police said that a dispute began at home just prior to noon and Henry jumped into the bed of the pickup truck as his fiancée Loleini Tonga was driving away from the residence after the dispute.
“The domestic situation continued between the operator and Mr. Henry,” the police said in a statement. “At some point while she was driving, Mr. Henry came out of the back of the vehicle.” Later Chris Henry was found on a residential street around half a mile away from his home. Somebody informed the police and the medical team arrived to find Chris Henry in this hapless state. He was later pronounced dead on Thursday.
Henry had earlier broken his left forearm during a game with Baltimore on Nov. 8. To repair and fix his arm he had surgery and was then placed on season-ending injured reserve.
