A neighbor we spoke with said he had not seen the couple in two days.

"It's very scary. That's why I am worried right now," he told Eyewitness News. "You don't know what is going on next door."

Deputies said the couple is in their early 60s. Neighbors told us the husband owned six Subway sandwich franchises in the Houston area.
