Craig Rodgers Melton was 34 when he was last known to be in Fargo, North Dakota, on September 17, 2020. He was wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans when last seen.

Witnesses reported Craig was with two men and was giving them a ride from Fargo to Belcourt on the Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation. He was driving a maroon and red 1999 Saturn SL (Oregon plate 653KYU). The vehicle was later found in Belcourt, abandoned in a wooded area and inoperable, with the dash and rear seat removed. The FBI now describes Craig as a murder victim and is seeking the public’s help, offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to those responsible or to his remains.

Anyone who knew Craig, saw him on September 17, 2020, or has information about the ride to Belcourt or the vehicle’s abandonment is asked to contact the FBI or the Fargo Police Department with tips.
