Deputy Reigle spoke with residents in the area, who witnessed a named suspect and vehicle leaving the area and pulling a boat matching that description earlier in the day.

*** On Saturday 12/20/2025, at about 2356 hours, Deputy Chris Williamson was driving North bound on US 183 North. Deputy Williamson observed what appeared to be an abandoned/ disabled vehicle parked on the side of the roadway just south of County Road 405. Deputy Williamson approached the vehicle to find a male subject, later identified as DONALD MANIS MILLER, in the driver seat. Due to Deputy Williamson’s training and experience, it was obvious MILLER was intoxicated. MILLER had access to his keys and vehicle and could have easily drove away, causing a danger to himself and to others. To prevent MILLER from doing this, he was placed under arrest for Public Intoxication P.C. 49.02.
