Lawyers are set to select jurors Thursday for
the trial of a Pine Bluff man accused of shooting another man in
front of a house last May.
Thirty-nine-year-old Larry Henderson is accused of killing
48-year-old Aaron Street.
Henderson had pleaded innocent to capital murder and to
possessing a firearm as a four-time convicted felon. Prosecutors
are not seeking the death penalty.
Police had learned from witnesses that the men had argued prior
to the shooting. Henderson turned himself into police later that
day.
Henderson had been previously charged with first-degree murder
in 1989 in Lincoln County, but that charge was later reduced to
manslaughter.
The upcoming trial is set to take place in Judge Berlin Jones`
First Division Circuit Court.
