Java MYSTERY- Unaccepted Declaration

Question

This code is generating the errors displayed in the attached picture, regarding the declaration of the variable intCounter within the method removeItem of class Remover. I cannot fathom why, and have truly scoured the internet. Could anyone explain why the compiler is not reading this declaration?

        System.out.print("Updated Array: ");
        for (intCounter = 0; intCounter < 11; intCounter++)
            System.out.print(array[intCounter]);
    }
}

class Remover

    private Vector vector = new Vector();

    public int[] removeItem(int[] array, int intArrayLength, int intToRemove)
    {
        boolean boolIsRemoved;
        int[] arrayToReturn = new int[intArrayLength - 1];
        int intCounter;

        for (intCounter = 0; intCounter < intArrayLength; intCounter++)
            vector.addElement(array[intCounter]);

        boolIsRemoved = vector.removeElement(intToRemove);
        if (boolIsRemoved == true)
            {
                for (intCounter = 0; intCounter < intArrayLength - 1; intCounter++)
                    arrayToReturn[intCounter] = vector.elementAt(intCounter);
            }
            else
            {
                System.out.println("Element not present in array.");
                for (intCounter = 0; intCounter < intArrayLength - 1; intCounter++)
                    arrayToReturn[intCounter] = array[intCounter];
            }
            return arrayToReturn;
    }
}

`intCounter` is not a variable declaration, `int intCounter` is a variable declaration. — azurefrog, Dec 03 '15 at 23:23

in main(), intCounter is not yet defined, like errors say, add a definition of it, e.g.

int intCounter;
for (intCounter = 0; intCounter < 12; intCounter++)
