Bariloche Ln. is a small street, that is known to be in a quiet area, that rarely sees incidents like this other than in the papers and on social media. Several residents who live around the residence where this incident occurred later stated they never even realized something had happened on their street until they read about it on social media pages. Others said there was no way to miss all the activity, that lasted long into the evening.
