Riverside police and medics responded around 11:15 p.m. Oct. 4 to the parking lot of The Poker Hub at 5520 Burkhardt Road on a report of a disturbance.
A 911 caller told dispatchers a couple was outside fighting when two people in a vehicle ran over a man, later identified as Mills, according to Huber Heights Communications Center records.
“He’s barely moving,” the caller said. “He’s on the ground.”
The people in the vehicle fled the scene.
When officers arrived, they found Mills with a head injury, as well as other injuries, said Riverside police Maj. Matthew Sturgeon.
“Mr. Mills’ death has been confirmed a homicide. Furthermore, this has been our investigative approach from the moment it happened,” Sturgeon said Friday.
No arrest has been made, but Sturgeon said detectives “are making great headway in this investigation” and have interviewed multiple persons of interest.
The investigation is open and ongoing.
Anyone with information is urged to call the Riverside Police Department at 937-233-1801 or dispatch at 937-233-2080 or email at police@riversideoh.gov.
