A tipster told police Crew was in an apartment on the 7000 block of Apple Street in Pittsburgh. Detectives went to the apartment at around 11:00 a.m. Crew was not there but they spoke with his current girlfriend, Chelsey McIntosh. During questioning, she told police she had been arranging different locations where Crew could stay.

Crew was found shortly after in a vacant neighboring apartment.
