There are no known injuries. No evacuations were made, but Huntleigh Drive was closed off to traffic while police did their work.



A neighbor, Anthony Smith expressed shock at the arrest.

"That's crazy," Smith said. "They should be locked up for a while. A long time. We don't want it in our neighborhood. If I'd seen it, I'd call the police in a heartbeat."
