Arrest in Gunfire Rampage

(Michigan City, IN) - An arrest has been made in regards to numerous reports of gunshots fired in a Michigan City neighborhood, more than a year ago.

 

Victor Miller, 24, was charged in La Porte Superior Court 1 with two counts of Level 5 felony criminal recklessness. Court documents say officers were called to the area of York and Dupage streets back in July of 2023 for a report of shots fired. Upon arrival, they found 21 spent bullet casings. One of the bullets allegedly struck two parked vehicles.

 

A vehicle was spotted leaving the scene with a passenger holding a gun out of one of the windows. That report helped trigger the collection of other evidence, culminating in Miller's arrest just over a year later.

 

The warrant was served on Saturday. During his initial court hearing Tuesday morning, Miller was given a trial date of June 9. He was being held in the La Porte County Jail on $15,000 bond.
