Doorbell video from May 16 allegedly shows Sean Hubbard, 34, firing the gun at the entrance of a home in Rock Hill, South Carolina, according to WBTV. While Hubbard's face is completely exposed to the camera, the firearm is wrapped in what appears to be a hooded sweatshirt or jacket.
Nobody was home at the time of the shooting, but Hubbard allegedly returned at around 11 p.m. that night and shot and killed 19-year-old Camariya Tidwell.
Hubbard, a North Carolina resident, was arrested early Sunday morning in Rock Hill, WCNC reported. A SWAT team was reportedly activated to take him into custody.

Tidwell's family has also accused Hubbard of appearing at the home on the Tuesday before the alleged killing, and firing shots into the home.

"He shot four gunshots through my son’s room and my son and my grandson were laying in their bed," said Tidwell's mother, Shifarnia McCullough, according to WCNC.
That alleged incident led the family to install the video camera that captured the Saturday shooting.

Tidwell's brother, Caleb, said Hubbard "stalked" the family for a week before Camariya was killed.
"For a week straight, he stalked my family’s home," Caleb said, WCNC reported. "He terrorized my family."

The violence reportedly boiled over after a cousin of Tidwell, Jamya McCullough, hired Hubbard to work on her car after she found him through social media. But the business relationship went south, and McCullough later told Hubbard she no longer wished for him to do the work.
"I told him that I didn’t want him to work on my car," McCullough said, according to WCNC. "This man threatened me and I immediately blocked him."

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
