Fox 4 spoke with a neighbor who’s lived here for five years and has never seen this kind of activity near her home. “Pretty quiet street; most of the people on the street are elderly. There are a few homes that are younger, but it’s all pretty quiet. Kids play in the road and play basketball,” said Norma Rogers.
Detectives have continued to work the scene through the night, and as of 6 a.m. a section of Starlite Lane remained closed to traffic..
The sheriff's office will give another update on the death investigation Friday morning.
