Police hope someone has security camera footage.
“I spoke to the police, and we have a Ring camera. But we don’t have it activated to record. So that may be something we change to be a little more proactive,” said Page.
Neighbors are staying alert as police continue to investigate.
“We’ll keep our eyes open for anything else that may go on,” said Page.
