News 13 went knocking on several neighbors' doors to see if they saw or heard anything, but many of them were not home or didn't feel comfortable going on camera. Nearby neighbors who chose not to go on camera say this is a very quiet neighborhood and waking up this morning to police cars everywhere is completely out of the norm. The Yuma County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate.
