Renton man faces murder charge in party shooting

P-I STAFF

An 18-year-old Renton man accused of shooting another young man at a South Seattle party last month was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder.

Jonathan James Hall will be arraigned March 4 in King County Superior Court in the Jan. 26 death of Perry Henderson, also 18.

Police say the two men had been feuding over a young woman for weeks before they got into an argument outside the party. Henderson took of his shirt and got ready to fight, but several people pulled him away.

Police say Henderson eventually broke free, threw a rock at the young woman's car and kicked Hall's car as they drove past him. Hall is accused of firing at Henderson, shooting him at least four times.
