During the confrontation, Miller, 24, formerly of the 1600 block of Route 442, Muncy, “grabbed an arrow and attempted to stab him in the face, but missed,” police said. Before forcibly entering the apartment, Miller, who apparently was looking for a gun, told the tenant he was going to kill him, police alleged. Miller fled the property after a second individual at the scene, gave him the gun he had been looking for, police were told, The injured tenant was treated at UPMC Williamsport, police said. Miller was arraigned the next day before District Judge Aaron Biichle on felony trespassing, terroristic threats, simple assault and harassment, and committed to the county prison in lieu of $50,000 bail.
