According to the court document, Robbins claims one of the other men hit Nixon with a rock. Robbins admitted to hitting Nixon as well, according to the affidavit.

Robbins told investigators one of the other people involved wanted to "bully" Nixon and get his truck. Robbins says Nixon told them to stop as they allegedly hit him, according to the court document.

The suspect told authorities one of the other people took the rear view mirror from Nixon's truck and used it to do drugs. The affidavit says Robbins claims he washed the outside of Nixon's truck and changed his bloody clothes.

Robbins told investigators he took the truck to the Walmart parking lot in Sallisaw and left it with the keys in it, according to a court document.
