On November 3, 2025, at around 2:45 p.m., a Bushkill Township police officer responded to an incident reported by the Bushkill Township Public Works (BTPW). According to the report, BTPW employees were performing leaf collection and disposal duties when David Barber signaled for them to stop their vehicle. Barber then began inquiring about their use of the roadway. As the conversation concluded, the public works employees attempted to depart, but Barber intervened by opening the vehicle door, thereby blocking their exit. As a result, Barber was charged with Disorderly Conduct, Harassment, and Obstructing Highways and Other Public Passages.

All persons are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
