The Texas Medical Board has suspended the license of a North Texas psychiatrist.

In suspending Dr. David Henderson's medical license indefinitely, the Texas Medical Board said it determined that his continuing to practice poses a threat to public welfare.

"The Board panel found that Dr. Henderson is currently impaired and unable to practice medicine
in a safe and competent manner," the board wrote in a statement.

The decision comes after Henderson, 42, was indicted on two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Henderson is the founder of mental health consulting practice Four Stones Collaborative and was an associate professor of psychiatry for the TCU School of Medicine.

According to a Dallas County arrest affidavit, Henderson was arrested earlier this year in the parking lot at North Park Mall, and officers recovered two guns and 3,000 rounds of ammunition.

Henderson is currently in the Dallas County Jail.
