An unarmed Black man in New Jersey grabbing iced tea from a car was shot and paralyzed by plain-clothed officers is suing the Trenton Police Department.
Shortly after midnight, on February 12, 2022, Jajuan R. Henderson was getting a drink from a Saturn Ion parked outside of his home when plainclothes officers in unmarked cars approached and boxed him in. Henderson said when he reached into his car to grab his phone to call for help, he was shot four times through the window.
Henderson is now paralyzed from the chest down. He was charged with aggravated assault, resisting arrest, and obstruction of justice. The Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office dropped the aggravated assault charges. However, Henderson still faces resisting arrest and obstruction charges.
The 29-year-old’s suit alleges excessive force, negligence, and racial profiling.
