A domestic disturbance in a Locust Grove neighborhood ended in a deadly shooting on the morning of June 25, 2025. Officers responding to reports of gunfire found shots still coming from the two-story home on Weymouth Drive. The suspect, identified as James Calvin Miller, emerged and surrendered as police prepared to enter.

Inside, authorities found the body of his son, James Calvin Miller Jr., 39, in a downstairs bedroom from a gunshot wound. An injured woman, described as the suspect’s wife and the victim’s stepmother, was hiding in an upstairs bathroom and was treated at Piedmont Henry Hospital before being released the same night. Police recovered about three firearms and said the suspect appeared intoxicated; no clear motive has been reported.

Anyone who knew the family or has information about what led to the shooting is asked to come forward.
