On the early morning of August 9, 2017, 29-year-old Timothy Lampkins of Marion was shot while in his vehicle near the intersection of State Road 9 and County Road 1450 North in rural Madison County, Indiana. At about 3:45 a.m. Lampkins called 911 reporting he had been shot; responders found him in his car with multiple gunshot wounds to his chest, neck, and arm. He was taken first to a hospital in Anderson and then airlifted to Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis in serious condition, where he later died.

The shooting prompted a large multi-agency response and a manhunt that disrupted the community enough that two local school districts delayed the start of classes by two hours. Around 8:00 a.m. officers found and arrested 19-year-old Sierra Nicole Swoveland of Muncie after she emerged from a nearby cornfield; initial reports said she was preliminarily charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery. Court records show the charge was later changed to involuntary manslaughter and resulted in a prison sentence.

If anyone has information about Lampkins, his movements that night, or witnessed activity near State Road 9 and County Road 1450 North, please share what is known.
