Kyle Jerry Dale Morgan is believed to have been running away from home on June 15th, 2016. He offered a friend money and some marijuana in exchange for a ride to the local Greyhound terminal so that he could return to his mother's home in Kentucky, where he was living a year prior. The friend convinced a relative to drive himself, Kyle, and a mutual friend to the terminal. According to the mutual friend, Kyle purposefully left his phone in the car, so that it couldn't be used to find him. They dropped him off and he wasn't seen alive again.
The next day, the body of Kyle Jerry Dale Morgan was found under the Fort Henry Bridge in Wheeling, WV. Not far at all from the terminal. He'd been beaten about the head with a rock until he died from blunt force trauma. He was then positioned on his stomach and covered with a blanket believed to have already been on scene. The area is well known as a site of multiple homeless camps, and it was a homeless man who found him.
For more about the case in general and the events leading up to Kyle's murder, here are some articles from local news sources:

I've seen discussion of this case almost no where, so I decided to see what you folks thought about it. I wouldn't consider myself an insider but I'm a local and somewhat familiar with everyone involved in this case. I would love to hear your theories about what happened to Kyle and to raise some awareness about this case as I feel it's been neglected.
This is my first post so if there is anything I left out or need to change, please let me know!
