Man who beat another man to death calls cops from Henderson police station lobby
One man is dead and another in jail after a fight in Henderson early Wednesday.

He told the dispatcher he was in a fight with a man he did not know, and the man wasn’t moving, Henderson police said. He was told to stay on the phone, but he ran. Police caught him later.
