Crawford’s friends hold a truck reunion to keep his memory alive.
“That’s how we would all get together and talk. We never had much time to hang out,” our friend Alana Stancil said.
The OSBI has searched for Crawford since early September but believes they have found the 21-year-old’s body.
“On September 8, those agencies used a helicopter to search a wide area in Payne County. During that search, when they were searching, they found parts of Crawford’s car,” said OSBI Public Information Officer Hunter Mackey.
A 21-year-old man was arrested in connection with the crime on charges of first degree murder, carjacking and several other charges.
“We made the arrest and contact because we found that male deceased near where that suspect was located,” Mackey said.
Friends said Crawford’s love of family and friends will be what they will miss most.
“I honestly didn’t know what to think. I couldn’t wrap my head around it. He loves everyone, he loves everything about trucks,” Stancil said.
They are hosting the get-together for another opportunity to connect and make memories in honor of their friend.
“We have a group of people in this small community, and we’re not all friends, but we’re there for each other when we need them,” Humphrey said.
