Henry Lee

Crime Reporter

Henry has been at KTVU since 2015. Henry worked as a crime reporter at the San Francisco Chronicle before jumping to broadcast news. At KTVU, he has covered a number of high-profile cases, including the Ghost Ship fire trial, the Vallejo kidnapping case once deemed a hoax as well as deadly freeway shootings across the Bay Area.  

Henry grew up in Orange County, Southern California and studied psychology at UC Berkeley, where he also chased the cops while reporting for the student newspaper the Daily Californian. 

Henry loves being able to cover the news in the beautiful Bay Area where he went to school, cut his teeth as a reporter, met his wife and started a family. He believes there is no better place than here to cover the news and inform viewers. 

When he’s not working, Henry enjoys spending time with his wife and children and occasionally doing tricks on his BMX bike. It was on BMX bikes that Henry began chasing cops and ambulances with his best friend when they were kids.
