Timothy ’TJ’ Henderson was 18 when he was shot and killed in the breezeway of the Herrington Mill Apartments in Lawrenceville, Georgia, on May 4, 2024. The shooting happened around 11 p.m.; a resident who heard a popping sound discovered his body about an hour later. Gwinnett County police described the incident as the result of a robbery.

A recent Peachtree Ridge High School graduate planning to study in Gwinnett Technical College’s culinary program, Henderson was remembered as an aspiring chef who loved cooking for friends. Family described him as smart, charismatic, and close to his mother, Lashika Almond; friends and relatives later gathered to release balloons and held a celebration of his life on May 17.

Investigators named a suspect and charges were filed. Does anyone have information about TJ’s last evening or the Herrington Mill Apartments area that could help clarify what happened?
