Neighbours have been left shocked by the incident.
“I know there are a lot of people that come and go from there,” one told 9News.
“There were about 40 of us standing around going, ‘Are we safe?’
“That was the worst of it I think.”
Another neighbour said: “Plenty of other nice people in the street so it’s not too concerning but just strange two doors up.”
