Ronald Jack Henderson was killed on Apr. 5, 1986, in Halifax. This Sunday marks the 40th anniversary of his death. According to a news release from Halifax police, investigators believe there are people who have information that could help solve the decades-long homicide investigation. Henderson had been working as a taxi driver with Armdale Taxi. At the time in 1986, he picked up two passengers on Herring Cove Road. Police responded to a report of an injured person at 90 Withrod Dr. They located Henderson suffering from life-threatening injuries. He was transported to a hospital where he later died. Investigators believe an altercation occurred in front of 90 Withrod Dr., and the passengers allegedly took Henderson’s taxi and left him seriously injured by the side of the road. The taxi was later found abandoned in a local school parking lot. The Integrated Criminal Investigation Division continues to investigate. They say anyone with information is asked to contact police at 902-490-5020. The case is part of the Nova Scotia Department of Justice Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes Program, which offers cash rewards up to $150,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for major unsolved crimes.
