TEXARKANA, TEXAS – Texarkana, Texas Police arrested Devonta Henderson, 25, of Texarkana Texas for Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon after he turned himself in to officers over the weekend.

An arrest warrant was later obtained for Henderson.

Henderson is being held in the Bi-State Jail with a bond of $100,000.
