Authorities later confirmed that Sellers was Harvey's grandmother.

"She was a sweet soul. She was a good soul. She will be very much missed," a neighbor told WMAR.

“I’ve never seen anything like this. They were always good people those two were good people, friendly, I always cut their grass or take stuff to the dump for them, and they are pretty good people,” another neighbor told WMAR-2 News.

Cherry is currently being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center.
