"At this point, we don’t know who we’re looking for," Musallam said.

Neighbors told ABC10 Wednesday morning that they thought their neighborhood was safe.

"It’s awful. It’s terrible. I just couldn’t believe that that was happening just three houses down from me. It just made no sense," a neighbor told ABC10.

In a Facebook post, Klinedinst PC, a law firm where Wright worked as a legal secretary, wrote in part:

“Erica was a shining light who worked with our Sacramento team, who always had a ready smile and faced the world with enthusiasm and grace," the lawfirm said. 

People with any information or images of the killer as asked to submit a tip at 1-800-222-7463 or www.crimealert.org.
