WATCH ABOVE: “I watched somebody get murdered and there was nothing I could do but call police”: Witness who saw Freeman’s granddaughter slain
NEW YORK – The boyfriend of Morgan Freeman’s granddaughter has been arrested in her fatal stabbing on a New York City street.
Lamar Davenport was arrested on a murder charge Monday, a day after 33-year-old actress E’Dena Hines was found with stab wounds to her chest in the street in front of her Upper Manhattan apartment building.
No working telephone number for Davenport could be found. It wasn’t immediately clear whether he had a lawyer.
Police say Davenport was in a relationship with Hines.
Freeman issued a statement saying, “The world will never know her artistry and talent, and how much she had to offer.”
Hines was actually Freeman’s step-granddaughter, but Freeman’s publicist says the actor thought of Hines as his granddaughter. She was the granddaughter of Freeman’s first wife.
