Mysterious Creek Bank Robbery Linked to Hidden Loot
Ozona Stockman reports sixteen thousand dollars allegedly dug up from a New Mexico robbery near a hackberry tree beside Live Oak Creek off Highway 27 in Crockett County. Two men approached Tom Brown's home and camped by a concrete bridge, later reappearing breathless. Two more men later questioned locals, claiming they hunted the pair as detectives. A fresh dug hole near the hackberry, a railroad spike, and bark marks form a triangle pointing to the spot, suggesting gang involvement and a possible double cross.
