Neighbors also said that a male and female in their late teens or early 20s live at the home.

“You hear voices right outside your door at six in the morning - it’s kind of weird,” said neighbor Michael Castaldi. “There were six people sitting down looking like they were restrained with zip ties or something. They had hoodies on and blankets wrapped around them because it was cool.”

Anyone with information regarding this case is asked to contact the Volusia Sheriff’s Office at 386-254-1537 or Crime Stoppers of Northeast Florida at 888-277-8477.
