Glover had just recently graduated from college and moved to Houston in October of 2020, according to his mother, Shanashee Yarber. But on Feb. 23, 2021, authorities say they received a 911 call from Glover about him being followed by suspects who were trying to steal his vehicle outside of an apartment complex at 4045 Linkwood Drive. Police said the 911 dispatcher then heard gunshots.

When HPD patrol officers arrived, they found Glover’s body towards the back of the complex.

During the investigation, a witness told police that they heard two gunshots, went outside, then heard two more gunshots. The witness then said they saw a Black man dressed in all black. Another witness reportedly saw a man run to the passenger side of a red vehicle and then fled the scene.

HPD investigators said further details led to charges being filed on Crocker, who was already in jail on an unrelated charge.

Charges were filed against Scott on June 15. He was later arrested on June 23.

Scott was out on bond for two aggravated robbery charges prior to this arrest.
