McArthur David Jones, 33, was shot multiple times and found on the front porch of a residence in the 1000 block of Rugby Boulevard in Roanoke, Virginia. Police were called at 12:01 a.m. on March 8, 2013; Jones had five gunshot wounds—two to the chest, one to the shoulder, and two in the back—and was taken to Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. This was the city’s first homicide of 2013.

Officers quickly obtained a description of a suspect and found a man matching it at 11th Street and Rugby Boulevard. He was identified as 34-year-old Tron Lamar Seaborn. A firearm was recovered nearby. Seaborn and Jones were known to each other; investigators reported Seaborn had been dating the sister of Jones’s girlfriend and had gone to the Rugby Avenue house late on the evening of March 7.

Seaborn was arrested and charged with murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. He entered an Alford plea and received a sentence totaling 25 years: 22 years for the killing and a mandatory minimum three years for the gun enhancement. Does anyone have additional information about Jones, his movements that night, or witnesses who were in the area?
