Smyrna police have identified a man they want to talk to about a recent homicide.

Investigators are trying to locate 21-year-old Horatio Lamar Pearson, Officer Michael Smith said Monday afternoon. Pearson has been named a person of interest in the death of 42-year-old Cardell Henry, Smith said.

Henry was found dead in his Galleria Courtyard apartment on Dec. 28 when a friend stopped by to check on him, police said. His cause of death has not yet been released.

Henry's 2007 Mazda 4 was missing from the parking lot, but was later recovered in Atlanta.

Anyone with information about Pearson's whereabouts is asked to contact Smyrna police Det. William Turner at 678-631-5179 or 770-434-6666.
