Dix Hills man arrested for shooting father to death
Suffolk County Police have arrested a Dix Hills man allegedly for shooting his father to death in their home on March 19.
Police responded to a Seaman Neck Road home at approximately 7:25 a.m. after a 911 caller reported a man hiding in their shed. When police arrived, it was determined the man, Christopher Miller, had been injured in a motor vehicle crash earlier this week and had been recently released from an area hospital. Officers escorted Miller back to his home, located on Bruno Lane, where they found he had allegedly shot his father, John “Jack” Miller, 75, to death before he fled the scene.
Christopher Miller, 43, was charged with Murder 2nd Degree. He was transported to an area hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the previous car crash and will be arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip on a later date.
