While no arrest has been made, authorities are treating the case as a homicide.
The unsettling scene leaves the community questioning their safety and seeking answers.
On November 7, 2024, police responded to a “suspicious situation” call at the Wintercrest Street residence.
Officers entered the home with the property management company and were confronted with a gruesome trail of blood leading to a freezer containing two bodies.
The neighborhood, previously undisturbed, is now grappling with the alarming findings.
The investigation has revealed that the bodies in the freezer suggest a violent history. The presence of blood throughout the abandoned townhome added a distressing element to the discovery.
Despite the evidence, police have not identified the remains and are actively pursuing leads.
“After thoroughly searching the residence, ELPD officers located a deceased individual inside a freezer,” the local police said, cited by ABC News.
Local residents are understandably uneasy about living near such a potential crime scene.
One neighbor described the situation as “deeply troubling.”
The uncomfortable reality of living so close to such horrors has left an impact on those in the area, who are calling for answers and transparency from law enforcement.
Investigators believe the bodies have been in the freezer for an extended period, ruling out the possibility of a recent crime occurrence.
“We don’t believe this happened last night or within the last couple days. I believe this is something that happened further back,” stated East Lansing Interim Police Chief Chad Pride.
His comments suggest a complex investigation ahead.
“My hope is we find something quickly, that way the public can be at ease, family can be at ease, neighbors can be at ease,” Pride added, cited by Dnyuz.
The Michigan State Police are assisting with the examination of evidence at a crime lab, with the East Lansing Police Department seeking information from the public.
While the investigation continues, it serves as a stark reminder of the unforeseen dangers that can exist, urging communities to maintain vigilance and report anything unusual.
