"When I saw the yellow police tape, I knew it wasn't a speeding ticket."
Nick Rollins and his neighbors have been waiting for answers, wanting police to tell them exactly what happened inside this home on South Bay Street.
"Yesterday, there was a police car and I pulled up beside him and I asked him is there somebody on the lose? Have you got somebody yet? He wouldn't even roll down the window and answer me so I just drove off," says Rollins.
"It's a little scary that something like that would happen so close," says Christie Stiegerwald.
The body of Micheal Saucier was found by family members over the weekend. Investigators say there was trauma to the Saucier's head and neck and say they're treating the case as a homicide.
"We don't have an official ruling that it's a murder, but we're not waiting on that ruling," says Foley Police Chief David Wilson. "We're treating it as a murder, the deceased person deserves that, the family deserves that."
More than five outside police agencies are assisting Foley in the investigation.
"We've got what it takes to do this," says Wilson. "But I just like the concept of bringing multiple agencies to the table so you have their talents, their skills and abilities, it's just the best way to these "who done-it?" murders."
Saucier had just moved to Foley from Pensacola to be closer to his son. Saucier was 54.
