A dispute over a moving truck rental at a Penske facility in northeast Austin turned deadly on April 2, 2026. William Rogers, 39, was shot at the Penske location at 8201 Tuscany Way after an argument about the rental deposit with two acquaintances who worked with him as movers. Police were called about 5:42 p.m.; officers found Rogers on the ground with gunshot wounds and EMS took him to a hospital where he was pronounced dead at 6:52 p.m.

Police identify 28-year-old Javarus Crumpton as the man who allegedly shot Rogers. Crumpton and the third man remained at the scene and were cooperating with investigators. The Travis County District Attorney’s office has been briefed and authorities described the incident as isolated, with no ongoing threat to the public. No arrest had been announced in the initial reports.

If anyone was at or near the Penske facility that afternoon or has information about the dispute or what led up to the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
