Australian Chris Lane seemed to have it all. He was recruited and received a scholarship to play baseball in the United States. And not only did he play baseball well, but he also excelled in his college studies.

He was well liked by his baseball teammates, his professors, and just about everyone who met him. And his personal life was taking off too. He had met the love of his life, girlfriend Sarah Harper, and had invited her to spend the summer in Australia with him to meet his family.

Yes, everything seemed to be just perfect.

But, sadly it wasn’t going to stay that way.

After returning from their Australia trip, Chris and Sarah stayed with Sarah’s parents. On their second day back from their trip, Chris decided to go jogging. However, Chris had no way of knowing that his decision to go jogging on that warm Friday afternoon in Duncan, Oklahoma would force him to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Because while he was jogging, unbeknownst to him, a car crept up behind him, and a shot was fired. On August 16, 2013 Chris Lane was murdered. Take Care & Stay Safe!
