Randell Two Crow, a 48-year-old Native American man, was found dead on December 8, 1998, near Rapid Creek by the East Boulevard bridge in Rapid City, South Dakota. Contemporary accounts placed his body in a pool of water along the bank beneath the bridge, one of several bleak recoveries from the creek during that period.

Two Crow’s death became part of a wider and troubling cluster: reports and later retrospectives cataloged eleven men, many Indigenous, recovered from Rapid Creek between 1998 and 2000. Those listings and subsequent editorials treated the sequence as more than mere coincidence and kept public attention on whether the deaths were accidents or something more sinister. No arrests were announced in connection with Two Crow’s death, and authorities did not publicly identify a suspect.

Community members and journalists continued to call for answers while the case remained unresolved. If anyone knew Randell Two Crow, his movements in December 1998, or has information about the recoveries along Rapid Creek, please come forward.
