Six days removed from his tragic death, police in Charlotte, NC are still unable to provide any answers as to why Cincinnati wide receiver Chris Henry fell out of the truck driven by his fiancee, Loleini Tonga, or if she will be charged for her role in Henry’s demise.

Henry’s memorial service is slated for tomorrow in his home town of Belle Chasse, LA, and the entire Bengals team is expected to be attendance, honoring Henry for the good things he accomplished in his short life, and trying to forget the negative issues that may have ended it.

A witness to the accident recently came forward with several disturbing details surrounding the incident, that may shed some light into the mindset of Henry during that fateful night. Lee Hardy, a nearby resident, claims he saw a shirtless Henry in the back of the truck, screaming at Tonga through the rear window before she drove away. Hardy also stated that he heard Henry shout “If you take off, I’m going to jump off the truck and kill myself.”

While Henry was not known to have had any thoughts of suicide, the possibility still remains that he may have chosen to end his own life. That said, it is far more likely that the swaying of the vehicle at high speeds caused Henry to be thrown from the vehicle, landing on the pavement and causing severe damage to his body that he would eventually succumb to in the hospital.

As always, we’ll keep you posted when more information becomes available.
