The Luzerne County coroner was summoned to the 20 block of North Sherman Street in Wilkes-Barre, where several police cars were present on Friday afternoon, according to Times Leader news gathering partners at WBRE/WYOU.
Residents say that police and ambulances arrived sometime after noon. Police blocked the road and placed crime tape around 23 N. Sherman St., where investigators were focused.
Police were also observed at a house further down North Sherman. WBRE/WYOU interviewed a woman from that home who wished to remain anonymous.
“I came out of the bedroom to my living room, I overheard people talking, I went onto my porch, and they informed me that somebody had left something on my porch, and a knife was on my porch,” she said.
