According to KTLA-TV, police attempted to take Miller into custody around 10 a.m. PT for alleged stalking and domestic violence when they say he "retreated into the house" and "was uncooperative with any of the commands by sheriff's deputies."
Miller, who has a previous arrest record, then began tweeting about the situation as it developed.
