According to state police, Kaine William Durham, 26, stabbed and shot Stephen James Stephens last Friday after a robbery that may have been connected to a drug debt.

The incident began at Dawg-Gone Pet Salon in Beckley Friday when Durham and a man identified as Brian Bolon allegedly attacked Stephens and a woman identified as Melanie Hussian who had come to the salon.

Troopers said Durham stabbed Stephens there and then drove him, with his hands tied together to nearby Summers County where he was stabbed again and shot to death. Reports indicate Bolon was also found dead at the scene. His death remains under investigation.

Durham, who has been charged in Stephens’ death, is being held in the Southern Regional Jail without bail.

State police are continuing their investigation.
