Share CHERRY TREE HOMICIDE SUSPECT STILL AT LARGE Companion faces charges of hindering apprehension 7/26/2010 Police continue to search for a Cherry Tree man suspected of causing the July 3rd death of an elderly Northern Cambria man. Meanwhile, the woman living with the suspect has waived her right to a preliminary hearing and will stand trial on charges of hindering apprehension and drug possession. It’s a logistically complicated case involving jurisdictions in four counties. 38-year-old Brenda Romagna was charged in Clearfield County, then taken to the Indiana County Jail, where she is being held in lieu of $15,000 bond on drug-related charges in a separate case. The man she was living with, Sherman Holes, fled into the woods in Coalport when police attempted to apprehend him on July 10th. He’s wanted in both Blair and Clearfield counties in separate cases, and is suspected in Cambria County of beating up 79-year-old Arthur Henry so badly that he died from head injuries three days later. No one has yet been charged for the homicide, but police say Holes visited Henry on June 30th and the two fought. Two other people, Paul and Brenda Hockenberry of Coalport, were also charged with hindering apprehension, but those charges were later withdrawn and they pleaded guilty instead to disorderly conduct charges, paying a $187 fine.  «  Return to previous page  »  Send to a friend ShareThis
