A Southampton Township man was killed at a Pennsylvania truck stop last week.

Officials say James Hilton was killed early Friday morning. They say he was helping a fellow driver park his truck. While this was happening, officials say Hilton got into an argument with someone who pulled out a gun and shot Hilton.

Hilton died at the scene and the suspect drove away.

Officials were soon able to locate the suspected shooter and took him into custody.

A GoFundMe page created to support Hilton’s wife and child has raised more than $20,000.
