BREATHING SOUNDS IN THE BASEMENT: Police Make Unexpected Discovery

“Given the context of the investigation, we had to prepare for anything,” an officer explained.
The incident serves as a reminder of how easily fear and uncertainty can escalate during high-stress situations.
The broader investigation remains ongoing.
