The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office has been unreachable all day, but the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office just put out a press release telling us what we already know:
Shane Franklin Miller is a suspect in the triple homicide of his wife and two daughters. Miller is considered armed and dangerous.
Agencies from US Marshalls, Arcata PD, Fortuna PD, Rio Dell PD, Bureau of Land Management, Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, CAL Fire, California Highway Patrol, National Guard, Shasta, Humboldt, and Counties are actively searching for the murder suspect in the Petrolia, CA area.
