A dice game in an apartment on the 900 block of Maine Avenue Southwest ended in violence and the death of 31-year-old Peter Jay Miller III. Miller lived at the address with acquaintance Juan Manuel Guerra. On the morning of October 6, 2021, first responders found Miller unconscious in the residence and rushed him to a local hospital. He died of blunt force trauma on October 11, 2021, and the death was ruled a homicide.

Investigators learned that Miller, Guerra and a witness had been playing dice when the game became heated after the rules were changed. The witness left the apartment, was later called back by Guerra, and found Miller unresponsive on the couch. Initial reports to police suggested a natural death, but officers on scene found circumstances that prompted homicide detectives to take over the inquiry.

Does anyone have information about that evening in October 2021 or about Miller’s movements before he was found?
