Austin Police Investigate Two Separate Homicides in 12 Hours

Austin police are currently probing two unrelated murders that occurred within a short span of time. The first incident took place on April 2nd at a truck rental facility in Northeast Austin, where a 39-year-old man, William Rogers, was shot during an argument with a coworker over rental costs. The shooter remained at the scene and cooperated with authorities.

The second murder occurred around 12:45 AM on April 3rd in Northwest Austin, leaving a 35-year-old man dead. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots and called the police. However, there are currently no suspect details or information on whether the victim knew the shooter.

Authorities emphasize that these incidents appear to be isolated disputes and pose no general threat to the public. They have been actively canvassing for witnesses and reviewing surveillance footage at both crime scenes.

Investigators are still working to gather more information and encourage anyone with tips to contact the homicide line to help resolve these cases promptly.
