In the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violation, the high-Q{sup 2} DESY HERA events can be interpreted as the s-channel production of a single top-squark of M{sub {tilde t}{sub 1}}{approx}200 GeV, whose dominant decay modes are assumed to be the R-parity violating e{sup +}+d and the R-parity conserving {chi}{sup +}+b. Assuming only one coupling {ovr {lambda}{sup {prime}}{sub 131}} is nonzero of order {approximately}0.04{minus}0.12, we find that (i) the high-Q{sup 2} HERA events can be understood as an s-channel top squark production with a subsequent decay into e{sup +}+(singlejet), and (ii) the ALEPH 4-jet events can be understood in the scenario suggested by Carena {ital et al.} We briefly discuss other physics signals of this scenario at other places such as HERA, CERN LEP200, and Fermilab Tevatron. The best test for our scenario is to observe the top squark decay into {chi}{sup +}+b followed by {chi}{sup +}{r_arrow}{tilde e}{sup +}+{nu}{sub e} and {tilde e}{sup +}{r_arrow}q+{bar q}{prime} via the R-parity violating coupling. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
