Update: Brothers arrested in E. Providence stabbings

EAST PROVIDENCE -- Brothers Frank and Glenn Miller were arraigned this afternoon in District Court, Providence, on charges stemming from accusations that they stabbed two men early this morning.

Frank Miller, 47, from Ohio and formerly from East Providence, and Glenn Miller, 53, of Pawtucket Avenue, East Providence, were charged with assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy to commit felony assault.

The two Miller brothers were at a local bar around 10 last night in the city's Riverside section when Glenn Miller's ex-girlfriend walked in with another woman and two men.

According to police Capt. Walter Barlow, words were exchanged and Frank Miller went outside with one of the men. A fight broke out outside. It was quickly broken up.

However, shortly after 1:30 a.m. today, police said the Miller brothers arrived at 22 Bluff St. in the Riverside section where they allegedly stabbed both men. The man who lived in the Riverside home is 39 and the other man, who lives in Cranston, is 38.

The men were taken to Rhode Island Hospital in Providence with non-life threatening injuries. Police would not release their names.

The ex-girlfriend identified the Miller brothers and told the police where their mother lives. The police learned the men were driving a car with an out-of-state license plate. At about 2:30 a.m., four officers arrested the Miller brothers near the mother's home.
