I saw this over on ESPN.
The article doesn't go into much detail about what happened. It sounds like the victim was a middle-aged homosexual man who worked in a bar and was known in Blacksburg to drug young men. The rumors are he tried to catfish this linebacker on Tinder. It's not clear what happened when the player showed up at his apartment, but it ultimately seems like the man was beaten to death.
This Reddit thread gives "first-hand" details on experiences that Blacksburg residents have had with this man It's a crazy read.
Not sure what kind of charges the young man is going to end up facing. This seems like it will be a complicated case.
