6 Serbians Arrested in Greece in Fatal Beating of US Man

by Associated Press

   BELGRADE, SERBIA --

   Serbia said Saturday that six of its citizens had been arrested in
   Greece in the investigation of the beating death of a 22-year-old Texas
   man on the island of Zakynthos.

   Serbia's Foreign Affairs Ministry said the detained Serbs were to
   appear before a judge.

   The family of Bakari Henderson of Austin, Texas, identified him as the
   victim. His family said Henderson was in Greece working on a photo
   shoot to launch a clothing line. Bakari graduated from the University
   of Arizona in May with a business degree.

   Greek police said the victim was beaten to death early Friday at a bar
   in Lagana. Officials haven't released a possible motive for the attack.

   Greek police said Friday that a 34-year-old Greek and a 32-year-old
   British man of Serbian origin had been arrested.
