“I was very surprised,” neighbor Walter Williams told Channel 2’s Audrey Washington.
“Very shocking because we seldom even get police to come through here,” neighbor Sidney Boney explained.
Police said they first went to the home for a welfare check, which is when they found the body.
“The police activity was enormous. There were like 14 cars that I counted,” Boney explained.
