A long-running dispute over speeding on a private road in Three Springs, Pennsylvania, ended in deadly violence on the evening of April 3, 2022. Forty-year-old Timothy E. Skipper Jr., a husband and father of two young sons, had repeatedly confronted his neighbor about reckless driving on Springhill Drive because his children often played outside. While Skipper and his wife were unloading groceries that Sunday, their neighbor reportedly sped past their home; Skipper then went to the neighbor’s house to discuss installing speed bumps. That was the last time his wife saw him alive.

Surveillance footage from the neighbor’s security cameras shows an argument at the front door during which an AR-15 rifle was produced. The video depicts a struggle after Skipper grabbed the rifle’s barrel; Skipper was shot three times — in the shin, forearm, and a fatal chest wound. Neighbors and family performed CPR, but Skipper died in the back of an ambulance. Law enforcement later arrested Cole J. Campbell and charged him with criminal homicide, aggravated assault, and related offenses; Campbell claimed he acted in self-defense. A jury convicted Campbell of voluntary manslaughter and two counts of aggravated assault and the judge imposed a prison sentence noted for Campbell’s lack of remorse.

Did anyone in the neighborhood ever keep records or video of the repeated speeding incidents on Springhill Drive that led to this confrontation?
