William Rogal, 89, was fatally shot on September 19, 2018, in West Chester, Pennsylvania. His death occurred inside an apartment at the Bellingham Retirement Community in East Goshen Township, where his wife Nancy Rogal was also killed. Both victims were in their late 80s.

The killings were carried out by their son, 59-year-old Bruce Rogal, after he had earlier shot at his ex-wife, Kitty, outside her home in West Bradford Township; Kitty escaped unharmed. Bruce Rogal later exchanged gunfire with Pennsylvania State Police, crashed his car into his ex-wife’s house, and was found dead in the driver’s seat with weapons beside him. He had been served with a final divorce order that same day that awarded the family home to his ex-wife, a development reported to have set him off.

The deaths of William and Nancy Rogal left the surrounding community shaken. If anyone knew William or the family and can share information about their lives or the events of that day, please contribute what you can.
