“She was hysterical, yelling, screaming, crying on the street. She was crying, saying ‘I just want to get my car,'” a neighbor revealed. “A little later, she came out with police. I heard her crying and somebody was trying to comfort her. Police tried to bring her in the house and close the door, but the door got opened. She was in and out a few times,” the witness continued. “We couldn’t see what was going on in the house, but when she came out she was crying like crazy.”
