A 58-year-old man is dead after a brutal attack inside a Walgreens in East Hartford and a 24-year-old man has been charged with the victim’s murder.
Police said Anthony Henry, 24, and Robert Boulay, 58, both of East Hartford, were both shopping at the Walgreens at 20 Connecticut Boulevard in East Hartford on Aug. 3 when they got into an argument inside the store.
Then the fight turned physical. Police said Henry punched Boulay in the face, then either kicked his head or stomped on it as many as 15 to 20 times.
Boulay was transported to the hospital.
When police arrested Henry shortly after the assault, he was initially charged with assault in the first degree and breach of peace, police said.
On Aug. 8, Boulay died at the hospital from the head injuries he sustained during the assault, according to police.
On Monday, police added a first-degree murder charge to the list of charges against Henry.
