Help sought solving city's double murder

9/30/2006

Toledo police are seeking information through the Crime Stopper program about a double murder last weekend in which two men were shot multiple times in the head.

Brian Davis, 29, of Springfield Township and Lloyd Henderson, 29, of Springfield, Ohio, were found dead Sunday afternoon in a car in the 300 block of East Lake Street in North Toledo.

The Lucas County Coroner's Office said it appeared the men had been dead since the night before.

The men were linked to a multimillion-dollar cocaine ring that stretched from Toledo to Chicago that authorities dubbed Operation Tailgate. They were uncharged suspects in the year-long investigation, police said.

Anyone with information about their slayings is asked to call the Crime Stopper program. Callers may remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward.
