They arrested 33-year-old Darrius Miller. He had been wanted on a charge of felonious assault for a stabbing in Medina. He had also been wanted on a felonious assault charge in Cleveland.

U.S. Marshals arrested Miller in the 1200 block of Bender in East Cleveland, finding him in a small doghouse behind an abandoned home.

Pete Elliott, U.S. Marshal for the Northern District of Ohio, said, “we’ve found people hiding in washers and dryers, small areas and in ceilings. But, this is the first time we’ve found someone hiding in a doghouse.”

We’re told the suspect also has a record for multiple arrests on gun charges.
