Lidia Cid, who lives near the home, tells Channel 13 that she witnessed a woman coming out of the house. When confronted about why she was there, Cid says the woman told her to mind her own business. <\/p>\n
\"She said to leave her alone,\" Cid says. \"I took my phone and started taking pictures, and she ran.\" <\/p>\n
Cid says the woman ran to a black truck that was occupied by men who were wearing masks. <\/p>\n
KTNV previously spoke to friends of Takemaru, the Reyes family. Mario and April said they are moving out of state, but worried about her as they said she lived alone. <\/p>\n
