A Gladstone, Ill., man wanted for attempted murder is still at large, and the Henderson County Sheriff’s Department is asking the public for help.
Terrance Clopton, 37, is also charged with aggravated battery and has eluded police since a shooting incident on Dec. 31, 2020, in Gladstone. When police arrived at the scene of the late December shooting, they discovered a man who had been shot several times in the torso. The man survived and has not been identified.
Two Gladstone residents — 36-year-old Lora L. Roberts and 41-year-old Larry D. Roberts — were arrested and charged with attempted murder and home invasion. A warrant was issued for Clopton the same day, but he was never arrested.
Clopton is described as standing 5-foot-9-inches and weighing 165 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes, and a scar on his right hand.
Anyone with information about the whereabouts of Clopton is encouraged to call Henderson County Crime Stoppers at (309) 867-6206. Information reported to Crime Stoppers that leads to an arrest can earn the caller up to $500, even while remaining anonymous.
