MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ) – Manitowoc Police continue to investigate a double homicide of a father and daughter.
More than four days have passed since 51-year-old Richard Miller and his 19-year-old daughter, Jocelyn Miller, were found dead from gunshot wounds inside a home on Dale Street Sunday morning, and Manitowoc Police have not made an arrest.
The fact that a suspect is on the loose is not comforting to the community, and many are asking for reassurance. Captain Jason Freiboth says there is only so much they can say at this time.
“I can’t make that guarantee that whoever is responsible wouldn’t come back, but I can tell you that we have officers during the investigation continually going back through the neighborhood.”
Many neighbors have expressed that it is not comforting enough.
Freiboth says they have reason to believe based on what they found during the investigation that the incident was targeted, but could not say what that was in order to protect the integrity of the investigation.
He says their visibility in the community should serve as comfort.
“Just to reassure that neighboorhood, we are making frequent checks of the neighboorhood.
Frieboth says they are continuously interviewing people and working around the clock to gather information and identify a suspect.
If anyone has the information they believe could assist in the investigation, call the Manitowoc Police Department at (920)686-6551, Det. Kowalski at (920) 686-6584 or Det. McGinty at (920) 686-6583. If you wish to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at (920) 683-4466 and may be eligible for a cash reward up to $2,000.
