One Man Charged in Old Bull Murder

Garrett Lee Crandell of Laurel has been charged as one of the two men suspected in the death of Clinton Old Bull last fall.  The 28-year old Crandell appeared Tuesday in Yellowstone County Justice Court, charged with one count of deliberate homicide.  He was arrested at about 5:30 p.m. Friday outside the Laurel Wal-Mart by members of the Montana Violent Offender Task Force.

 
Old Bull was found shot outside his Billings apartment on October 16, 2015.  Crandell is being held on a $500,000 bond.  The other suspect in the shooting, Ross Breshears, was arrested in November 2015 on federal charges, according to U.S. District Court records.
Breshears does not have a homicide charge filed against him at this time.  Charging documents for Crandell also name Breshears and indicate both men are responsible for the death because it occurred during the course of a felony offense, namely a meth deal gone wrong.
