Ashtin Owens, a 37-year-old White man from Scarbro, West Virginia, was shot in his Mountain Air Mobile Home Park residence near Glen Jean on November 21, 2022, and later died after being airlifted to a Charleston trauma center. Earlier that day an argument had occurred between Owens and the grandmother of a young man named Kayce R. Simms; the grandmother had posted about the dispute on Facebook. Learning of the argument, 20-year-old Kayce R. Simms went to Owens’s home, brought a firearm inside, and during a brief confrontation shot Owens twice before fleeing.

Witnesses who were inside the residence identified Simms as the shooter. Fayette County Sheriff’s Department arrested Simms on December 2, 2022, and charged him with first-degree murder. Does anyone have information about the people who were present in the home that day or other details about what led up to the confrontation?
