Anthony Michael Souvanlasy, 37, of Charleston, West Virginia, was found dead on December 7, 2023, along First Avenue in South Charleston with a gunshot wound to the head. He was discovered in the early morning hours; police said he had a bicycle with him and that the location was near the Microtel parking lot and the CSX Train Yard. Funeral information identified him as a United States Marine veteran who served in Iraq and named his parents and surviving family, including a son and siblings.

Investigators obtained surveillance footage showing Souvanlasy following Tavian Jones and another man through the Microtel lot and the train yard earlier that morning, and the two men later leaving the area without him. A murder warrant for Tavian Jones was issued December 12, 2023; Jones, reported as 24, was arrested by U.S. Marshals in Greene County, Tennessee on December 14 and extradited to West Virginia. He was charged with first-degree murder, arraigned in Kanawha County Magistrate Court and held without bond. Jones pleaded not guilty in March 2024 and a trial date was set for August 12, 2024.

Are there witnesses who remember seeing activity around the Microtel parking lot or the CSX yard that morning?
