Boston Murder Suspect Arrested In Atmore

August 24, 2017

A man wanted for murder in Boston has been arrested in Atmore.

Andre Henderson, 34, was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Task Force as a fugitive from justice.  Members of the Boston Police Fugitive Unit traveled to Atmore to take custody of Henderson. He was arrested on Bragg Street.

He was transported back to  Boston where he will face arraignment in Dorchester District Court for murder.

Henderson was believed to have been in Atmore for a couple of months.

On Monday June 26, at about 6:27 p.m., officers from the Boston Police Department responded to a call for a person shot in the area of 1357 Blue Hill Avenue. When they arrived, officers located a male victim suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. The victim, later identified as Jorrell Browne, 29, of Boston, was transported to a local hospital where he was later pronounced deceased.

“I want to commend my officers and our law enforcement partners for their tireless efforts which led to this arrest. This suspect thought he could avoid facing justice by hiding out of state – but you can’t escape the reach of the U.S. Marshals or the Boston Police Department,” Boston Police Commisioner

    Interesting…..in light of the last several incidences in and around the Atmore area(give or take 15/20 miles) this must be the best kept secret for hiding places for criminals….all we need now is a “dog and pony” to complete the circus…..sell tickets and make money for more “stop signs”….go figure
