It had two unknown stickers on the left side of the rear window and another unknown sticker in the middle of the rear window. The top of the truck had faded paint and the power steering pump whined loudly. It was last seen with an orange traffic cone and other materials in the bed.
According to Durham police, investigators also identified the last known person who was in possession of the vehicle as Darius Allen Jr., who died last year in a traffic crash. The truck has not been found.
