In Davenport, Iowa, an 18-year-old from Peoria has been charged with the murder of a Moline man following a shooting incident in April. Alex Markovich, aged 18, was accused in May of first-degree murder, a Class A felony, as well as brandishing a dangerous weapon, a Class C felony. According to an arrest affidavit, the Davenport police were called to the vicinity of 37th Street and Bridge Avenue at approximately 11:42 p.m. on April 20 after receiving reports of gunfire. The affidavit states that law enforcement discovered an unresponsive individual, later identified as Aaryis Henderson, aged 34, lying in the middle of the intersection.
