Jamie Weimert, 29, was shot and killed during a road-rage confrontation in York, Pennsylvania, on November 12, 2017. The incident happened about 4:00 p.m. in the 200 block of East Philadelphia Street after a collision between Weimert’s dark gray pickup truck with Maryland plates and a red SUV driven by 27-year-old Michael Yeaple. Both vehicles held passengers, including children and the drivers’ significant others. Accounts differ about which vehicle struck the other; witnesses and Weimert’s fiancée offered conflicting versions.

After the vehicles collided, Weimert exited his truck and approached the SUV, and Yeaple shot him at least once. Emergency services transported Weimert to York Hospital, but he died en route. Yeaple was taken into custody for questioning and later released. Investigators reviewed cell phone video, witness statements, and ballistic and medical reports. In January 2018 the York County District Attorney declined to prosecute, saying the Commonwealth could not disprove a claim of self-defense beyond a reasonable doubt.

Did anyone in the York area witness the collision or have additional information about what happened during the confrontation?
