Police did a background check and found out that Crockett was a convicted felon with drug offences. Crockett is facing charges of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, along with multiple traffic violations.

At around 4am on the 24th SPD stopped a car that had several different drugs and a stolen handgun.
