Throwing an exception when using string constructor

Alrite guys this is my last post and I will stop polluting this C# forum with stupid questions. Basically my client sends a string to server and if there is a space in the string you update the database. What I am trying to do is using the .IndexOf() function and I am assigning everything before the space to string called username and the characters after the space to a string called location. the username variable works just fine. But my location string is not working and throws an exception everytime. Here is my Code:
 public void doRequest()
        {
            
            //streamReader reads incoming connection from client
            StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(socketStream);
            StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(socketStream);
            //writes in coming data
           //Assigns data from the streamreader to a string
            string clientInfo = sr.ReadLine();
            int pos = clientInfo.IndexOf(" ");
            
            //assigns string info from stream reader to a char
            char[] newInfo = new char[clientInfo.Length];
            
            //for loop converts each string character to a char character
            for (int i = 0; i < clientInfo.Length; i++)
            {
                newInfo[i] = Convert.ToChar(clientInfo[i]);
            }
            
            //uses the string constructor to assign everything after .IndexOf(" ")
            //and to the end of the array to location 
            string location = new string(newInfo, pos + 1, clientInfo.Length);
            
            //assigns everything from the start of the array to the .IndexOf(" ") 
            //to username
            string username = new string(newInfo, 0, pos);

Where I have string location it throws an exception EVERYTIME which says "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.\r\nParameter name: startIndex"}" The string username assigns nad works just fine. Any suggestions??! and I'd once again like to thank everyone for their help.
