Investigators say they pulled the body from Leitner Creek that runs under Terry St. into the Imperial river.

Officials have not released much information about what they are calling a death investigation, but neighbors say something like this makes them worried to even step outside.

“You’re wondering what’s going to happen when you walk out your door.”

Other neighbors were afraid to show their face on camera with a possible killer on the loose.
