住在同一层楼的希尔米（47岁，运输业管工）透露，他从事发当天上午7时起，就闻到阵阵烧焦味。
希尔米说：“那股气味非常不寻常，闻起来像（燃烧）塑料，但我从来没有闻过这样的味道。我下午2时回家后，发现气味变得更浓。不过我当时以为是邻居在烹煮食物，又或是节日期间有人焚烧冥纸，没有多疑，没料到气味是从那个单位传出的，还闹出命案。”
住在事发单位正下方的曾新兴（46岁，技术人员）与妻子前天一早外出拜年，傍晚6时许回家后走近厨房窗户时，也嗅到楼上传来的烧焦味。
曾新兴说：“我当时以为气味是电线短路造成的。我们回到家时什么烟也没有，楼上也没有任何声音。”

左邻右舍透露，张锦兴一家三口约三年前搬到该组屋单位。网上资料显示，张锦兴在欣乐产业（SLP Realty）任职。邻居透露，张家给人的印象是沉默寡言，他们除了鲜少与邻居打交道，家中也很少有访客上门。
自上个星期有人登门找张锦兴后，张家更是门户紧闭。住在同一层楼的戴维（65岁，校工）告诉记者，一名约30岁，相信是张锦兴任职公司的女职员找上门，称张锦兴没有上班，全无音讯。
戴维说：“我放工回家经过（张家）门口看见她，她说（张锦兴）没去办公室，也不回电。但她在停车场认出他的车子，所以认定他就在屋内，却不想应门。”
另一名住同一层楼的甘姓妇女（44岁，家庭主妇）说，张家一家关系不像有异样，也总见到夫妻两人带女儿上幼稚园。她在约两个星期前见到他们一家，当时只有张锦兴带女儿上学，钟佩珊陪妇女下楼后独自返回家中，但当时并未察觉有其他不妥。
案件仍在调查中。
