Neighbors who spoke to Channel 11 News Monday said whoever lives in the home just moved in a few weeks ago, and they didn't see or hear anything unusual before police arrived Sunday.

Hampton Township police declined to answer questions about the investigation since the Allegheny County Police Department is now handling the case. County police have yet to release additional information about their investigation.

As of Monday evening, no arrests had been made.
