MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A double murder in Manitowoc has neighbors on edge, but Police continue to say the public is not in danger.
But with no arrests announced in the case, neighbors near the crime scene, like Amanda Camacho, tell Fox 11 they’re nervous.
“I’ve got kids, myself, and it’s just very, kind of, intimidating, because if I’m here by myself, what happens if it happens again, or somebody comes back? Yeah, it’s kind of scary.”
Nineteen-year-old Jocelyn Miller and her dad, 51-year-old Richard Miller, were found shot to death at a home on Dale Street, Sunday morning.
The murders shocked a neighborhood that seemed safe.
“It’s kind of weird how something like this would happen, because it’s a great neighborhood, like since I’ve been living here – almost a year,” Camacho said. “It’s been really quiet…a quiet neighborhood.”
Manitowoc police aren’t saying much more about the case and for some neighbors, like Tracy Lucas, that wasn’t enough information.
“If someone is next to you…is living next to you, and dies for some unknown reason, I believe the public should be worried, you know, especially if they don’t have any answers.”
Police said they’re still trying to figure out what happened inside the home.
No other information is being released, at this time.
“For them to ask us, the neighbors, questions and not really have a solid base of information or a solid basis of what happened themselves, it’s kind of nerve-wracking, you know,” said Lucas.
Anyone with information they believe could assist in the investigation is being asked to contact the Manitowoc Police Department at (920)686-6551, Det. Kowalski at (920)686-6584 or Det. McGinty at (920)686-6583.
