Former Century Resident Facing Federal Prison Time For Throwing Meth Chemicals At U.S. Marshal
June 20, 2019
A former Century resident with numerous local convictions is awaiting sentencing in Ohio on federal charges for throwing explosive meth manufacturing chemicals at U.S. Marshals during a chase.
William Burr Milliron, now 47, pleaded guilty to assault of a federal officer, possession of materials to manufacture methamphetamine, manufacture of methamphetamine and felon in possession of ammunition.
U.S. Marshals were searching for Milliron near Bowling Green, Ohio, on a probation violation out of Santa Rosa County in Florida. They spotted Milliron and attempted to pull over Milliron, who fled. Marshals pursued and officers from the North Baltimore (OH) Police Department joined the chase, according to court documents.
Milliron began throwing bottles containing unknown substances at the pursuing cars, and one of the bottles exploded on the front end and windshield of the police vehicle, according to court documents.
The pursuit continued until Milliron’s vehicle went off the road and crashed. Milliron was arrested and had 13 rounds of live ammunition in his pants pocket, according to court documents.
The substance in the bottles was found to be a combination of chemicals used to manufacture methamphetamine. The chemicals are highly volatile, toxic and combustible. The bottles had paper wicks which were charred from being lit on fire, according to court documents.
Milliron has multiple local felony convictions, including convictions for possession of methamphetamine, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer with violence and possession of drug paraphernalia related to a 2015 traffic stop in Century. The Florida First District Court of Appeal recently denied a motion to suppress evidence in that case. [Read more in a June 9 NorthEscambia.com story.]
