Abducted 10-month-old found alive after 2 women killed, girl critically injured in New Mexico park

NEW MEXICO: An abducted 10-month old girl has been found alive a day after her mother and another woman were found dead and a 5-year-old girl critically injured at a park near Clovis, New Mexico, authorities said Monday.

The FBI Albuquerque Division also said a suspect is in custody but provided no other details.

Police identified the dead women as Samantha Cisneros and Taryn Allen, both 23 years old and from Texico, New Mexico. They said at least one of the women was fatally shot. The 5-year-old girl was critically injured with a gunshot wound.

New Mexico State Police issued an Amber Alert late Friday for the infant, identified as Eleia Maria Torres.

Cisneros was the mother of both children and the fathers of the girls were cooperating with investigators and not believed to be suspects, according to police.

The women were found at a city park about 5 miles north of Clovis with their purses and belongings near the bodies, state police said.

Officers also discovered an infant car seat, a stroller and a small baby bottle at the scene.

“Officers immediately began searching the area for the infant,” police said.

A silver Dodge minivan belonging to one of the women also was found at the scene.

According to the Amber Alert, the suspect was possibly in a maroon Honda car.

The FBI and Clovis police previously had asked the public to come forward with any tips or leads and FBI Special Agent Raul Bujanda said no detail is “too small,” CBS affiliate KLBK-TV reported.

Bujanda called the slaying “horrific acts.”

Clovis is located in eastern New Mexico close to the Texas border.
