Virgin Islands police charged Kaden Durand with first-degree murder in the June shooting of Asani Henry.

A first-degree murder arrest on a warrant is an accusation. It is not a conviction. VIPD says officers found Henry with multiple gunshot wounds after a 911 call about shots in Hospital Ground. An affidavit's description of a video is the state's theory of who pulled him from a car. A magistrate has not turned that affidavit into a finding.

VIPD said a caller reported gunshots in Hospital Ground at about 3:40 p.m. on June 16, 2026. Officers found an unresponsive man with multiple gunshot wounds. Emergency medical technicians found no vital signs. Next of kin identified him as Asani Henry, 23. The department said U.S. Marshals arrested Graham, 23, in Orlando on Sept. 28, and that he was returned to St. Thomas on Oct. 10. Durand was served with a warrant on St. Croix on Oct. 2 by the Criminal Investigation Bureau. St. John Source reported both men are held on $1 million bail.

VIPD said both are charged with first-degree murder, first-degree robbery, first-degree assault, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, possession of an unlicensed firearm within 1,000 feet of public housing, a school, or a youth center, possession of ammunition, brandishing a deadly weapon, petit larceny, first-degree reckless endangerment, and conspiracy. The Virgin Islands Free Press, citing a VIPD affidavit, reported that Henry arrived at the Bethlehem Shelter parking lot in a silver Acura, that Graham approached the driver's window, and that Durand then dragged Henry from the car and fired at close range. St. Thomas Source reported that surveillance placed the two men together and that Durand had flown from St. Croix to St. Thomas three days earlier. Those details are what the affidavit alleges.

An arraignment for Durand was reported for Oct. 23. A $1 million bail order is a custody condition. It is not a verdict on the video or on who fired. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
