Luz Beriguete, a resident of the New York neighborhood of The Bronx, discovered on Saturday morning that
her living room was full of white worms that fell from the ceiling.
"There was like a super strong smell, but outside my house," he told Telemundo 47 station.
He immediately called the superintendent of his building, Ernesto García, to tell him what had happened: "He told me that this was because the lady upstairs left the garbage outside," Beriguete explained.
But the woman then told him that two weeks earlier she had heard gunshots at her neighbor's house, so the supervisor decided to call the police.

Upon arrival, New York police officers found the
"very decomposed" bodies of a 40-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman
, according to the NBC4 Washington station.
Investigators have not clarified the causes of the deaths, but consider that the woman,
Ashely Ducille
, was the victim of a homicide, so they suspect that the man (who has not been identified) could end his life and then commit suicide.
