Postie who found three bodies inside home fears family left eerie note for him

Don Clements was working his usual route on Friday when he spotted the note on a rickety house in Mount Holly, New Jersey. The sign featured ominous drawings of two sad faces with Xs for eyes and read ‘9-1-1 Inside’. It’s unclear who made the sign, and an investigation into the deaths is underway. However, the postie was disturbed to realise he’s the only person who could’ve seen it. ‘I thought it was weird, because the only person that would have been able to see that sign would have been me, ’cause I’m the only one that goes to that house every day,’ Clements told the New York Post.

The whole situation was weird. ‘Definitely don’t want it to happen again.’ The eerie note is what told Clements to raise the alarm, as he asked a passing local for advice before making the phone call, leading to police finding a bloody scene and three deceased ‘elderly’ individuals. Causes of death and identities have not been released, but a neighbour, who has lived on the estate for 50 years, said a family of brothers and sisters lived at the house. The woman, wishing to remain anonymous, said the family ‘pretty much stayed by themselves’ and ‘would barely leave their house’. They also didn’t drive anywhere. What’s more, on Tuesday, she noticed ‘someone coming out of the house’ to dump the rubbish. David Babcock told NBC10 that the family ‘didn’t bother anybody’ (Picture: NBC10 Philadelphia) ‘All the years I’ve been here, I’ve never seen anybody come in, go out of the house,’ she explained, except for the one brother who, ‘like clockwork’, would walk down to 7-Eleven at 2.30pm each day. ‘But it was trash day. He had a bag in his hand, took it down to the kerb, dropped it next to another container. ‘It was just a little bag. He put it down and walked away.’ Dressed in ‘all black’, he then ‘walked away’. And despite there being three bodies inside, there were still only two ‘rudimentary’ faces on the paper. ‘Two fit exactly. On the picture. That’s all he had room for. It was an 8.5, like a regular 8.5 by 11 sheet,’ Clements recalled. He previously assumed three or four residents lived at the deteriorating home, and they seemed like ‘nice people’. The building, on the other hand, was in poor condition. The window frames were rotted, the paint was peeling, and it stood out like a sore thumb among the other well-kept homes in the tiny Philadelphia suburb. Clements is still understandably shaken by what he found, as it’s not something that happens ‘every day’. ‘This is the first time I’ve ever, ever seen something like that.’ Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@metro.co.uk.
