A white Toyota sedan was seen on surveillance video dropping off a man at a gas station across the street from the site.

Surveillance video shows a man knocking over a gate to the site.

Then he leaves.

An hour later, a white Chevrolet extended van pulls into the same gas station.

Police say the man went into the gas station before he and the driver went into the construction site.

A short time later, cameras at the site were disconnected.
