Man from Missouri acquitted in St. Louis murder

ST. LOUIS (AP) – A man from Missouri has been acquitted of murdering a 19-year-old man and the woman who witnessed that shooting in 2020.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that a jury found Darrell Fisher III not guilty Friday at his retrial.

The 29-year-old had been charged with fatally shooting 19-year-old Malik Henderson and 25-year-old Zenobia Johnson three days apart in April 2020.

Fisher was tried on the same charges earlier this year but that jury could not agree unanimously on a verdict. Authorities have said that Johnson was the only witness to Henderson’s shooting.

He was killed at her apartment on April 14, 2020.
