HOLLIDAYSBURG — A Tyrone man who broke into his girlfriend’s Altoona apartment in November has been convicted of criminal trespassing, witness intimidation, harassment and disorderly conduct.
The Blair County Court jury that heard the domestic violence case against Devin M. Miller, 30, handed down those verdicts Tuesday, along with additional verdicts acquitting Miller of burglary and obstructing justice.
Sentencing is scheduled for June 21 by Judge Daniel J. Milliron.
Prosecutors said they were pleased with the jury’s verdicts and credited Altoona police for their use of body cameras providing video, with sound, shown during trial.
“This is a case where police body cameras allowed jurors to see how the victim reacted on the day of the incident, an essential element in this prosecution,” First Assistant District Attorney Nichole Smith said.
