Detectives from Northamptonshire Police are asking drivers and residents for dash-cam and doorbell footage following the murder of 20-year-old Mason Miller in Briar Hill, Northamptonshire. Mason died from a stab wound after a fight at the Briar Hill Skate Park in Ringway at around 3:30 pm on 18 February 2026. A 17-year-old boy was also left with serious injuries that put his life at risk during the same incident.

Investigators specifically want to see recordings of two males riding electric motorcycles together between 2:00 pm and 4:00 pm on the day of the attack. They are looking for footage from the Kings Heath, Duston, Upton, and Briar Hill areas of the town to help track where the riders went. Police believe these recordings could provide important details about the movement of people involved in the case.

A 17-year-old boy was arrested on 24 February 2026 on suspicion of manslaughter and remains in police custody. Another boy, aged 16, was arrested on 22 February 2026 but has since been released on bail while the investigation continues. Officers are urging anyone with cameras in the area to check their files to help give the family and community more answers.
