CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chris Henry is "battling for his life" after falling out of the back of a pickup truck Wednesday during what police described as a domestic dispute with his fiancee.
Henry was found in the road about eight miles north of downtown Charlotte "apparently suffering life-threatening injuries," according to Charlotte-Mecklenburg police. Police spokesman Robert Fey said officers were stationed near the 26-year-old Henry's hospital room. He had no information on Henry's condition, but said he was alive.
"We ask everyone to pray for Chris," agent Andy Simms of PlayersRep Sports said in a statement. "We also ask that you respect the privacy of Chris' family. Chris is indeed battling for his life tonight, and our thoughts and prayers (are) with him during this extremely difficult time."
Police said a dispute began at a home just before noon and Henry jumped into the bed of the pickup truck as his fiancee — whom they did not identify by name — was driving away from the residence.

With all do respect, please keep immature posts off this site and simply pray. Poke fun at him after he’s all healed up.
Sounds like there is a lot more to this then what we have here.
Yeah...the one thing that I’m curious about is the police stationed near his room....
I’m not poking fun at anyone. I just post articles. That’s what I do here, for 10 years.
He’s been a troubled man - hope he makes it through this.
I read this guy’s rap sheet and am not exactly surprised by this after doing so.
If his fiancee knew he fell out and just drove away and left him there, it seems she could be held liable, particularly if she drove in a fashion that caused him to fall out. But mabye I’m missing something.
Yeah! Why are you poking fun at this guy with your immature posts???? LOL! /sarcasm
Wow. That is not good.
Congratulations, I’ve only been officially Freeping for 7 years (lurked for 3 years before that). I have always liked your posts.
Police are probably mainly to keep away sneaky paparazzi (including hospital employees trying to snap pix to sell).
sorry, you took it wrong...your post is fine, it was meant for anyone saying something comical after it.
I’m streaming Laura Ingraham and the 10 a.m. news update reported that he has died.
