\nGERMANTOWN, Md. (WUSA) — Friends and family remember an avid biker who was killed when a driver crashed into him.
\nIt happened around 7 p.m. Friday night on Ridge Road near Morning Star Drive in Germantown.
\n48-year-old Stan Miller was heading home. It would his last bike ride.
\nDorian Janney says, "I can’t believe he’s not coming home. It hasn’t sunk in. I’ve gone to his room, touched his things, I’m feeling sad…sad for those left behind. We’re going to miss him."
\nMiller rented the basement from Janney’s home. She was more than his landlord. They treated each other like family.
\nThe avid biker, who just celebrated a birthday last week, would sometimes spend weeks at a time in Central America.
\nMiller was just three miles from home, riding on the shoulder when he was struck and killed. Police say they smelled alcohol on the driver.
\nPolice say the driver refused to take a breathalizer test and when doctors tried to get a blood test police say 34-year- old Quinzy Fraser from Clarksburg, Maryland, assaulted the officer and resisted arrest.
\nWhile charges are pending against the driver, friends and family are focusing on their loved one.
\nThey’re making sure to keep his memories alive, that means looking after his many bird houses out back and taking care of Sylvester who sits on the stairs waiting for his master to come home.
\nJanney says, "Stan was living his life to the fullest."
\nMaryland law alllows officers to take a blood analysis by force if a driver is involved in a fatal collision and suspected of DUI.
\nFraser is being held on a 200-thousand dollar bond.
\nPolice say it could be weeks before they get the blood results and charges are filed in the fatal accident.
