On Monday, police identified the body of a man who was found dead along a bank of a canal in Miami Gardens, Florida. The man was found with his hands bound behind his back, a plastic bag placed over his face and was shot multiple times. The body was found last Friday in the Carol City neighborhood.
The reason for the murder is still unknown at this time, said police. The man was identified as 38-year-old Christopher Lee Henry. There is no information on a suspect or suspects. A witness, Angie Ardavin, who has lived in the area for over 15 years, said that Henry had no pants on.
