The resident said: "About half an hour ago I had some women knock on my door asking for a Liam and a light.
"We said no one lives here with the name Liam. Turns out she knocked at someone else’s asking for a Karen then knocked on someone else’s house.
"There was also a black van parked a few houses down they drove off, then five minutes later a lad was walking down the street looking at everyone’s houses.
