Neighbors told Channel 2’s Tom Jones that they saw paramedics working on the 12-year-old near the front door and saw Shirley’s body between his home and a neighbor’s.
“No matter how that child passes, it’s not a good thing,” neighbor Obi Ubani-Ebere said.
Police said they are not releasing additional information at this time “protect the integrity of the investigation.”
Jones asked a man at the home if there is anything he wanted to share with the public. He lowered his head and walked away.
