Arrest Made in No Limit Towing Investigation

The suspect in an investigation of fraud and motor vehicle thefts via a tow company, subject of a search warrant and press conference announcement last week, has been arrested.

Sherral Crawley, 42, of Chesterfield, surrendered to Richmond Police detectives yesterday without incident at the Richmond Justice Center. She has been charged with motor vehicle theft x16 and obtaining money by false pretenses. Her booking photo is attached.

On Friday, August 11, the Richmond Police Department and agents from the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles served a search warrant on No Limit Towing and Recovery, located at 4505 Richmond Highway, as a result of an investigation dating back to December 2022.

A press conference was held following the search alerting the public to the investigation and attempts to locate Crawley.

“This investigation is a result of months and months of research, interviews, meticulous follow-up by detectives and collaboration and work by our partner, DMV, that brings an end to this criminal behavior,” said Chief Rick Edwards. “I commend the RPD officers and detectives whose dedicated work resulted in these charges.”

Since the press event announcing the search, several victims have come forward reporting similar thefts regarding towing companies. If you or someone you know believes you have been a victim of vehicle theft by a towing company, please call Richmond Police Detective Sergeant Castrinos at (804) 646-1144.
