Two New Mexico women are dead and a 10-month-old baby is missing after a shooting at a park in Clovis on Friday.
Authorities issued an Amber Alert for Eleia Maria Torres, saying they believed she was “in immediate danger.”
Another young girl was found near the scene with a head injury, and she and the baby have been identified as the daughters of one of the slain women, according to Clovis Police.
They were identified as Samantha Cisneros and Taryn Allen, both 23. Cisneros was the mother of both the injured girl and the baby — identified as Eleia Maria Torres.
Police did not describe the injured girls wounds but said she ws taken first to Plains Regional Medical Center and later to a hospital in Lubbock, Texas.
Officers who arrived on the scene found an infant car seat, an infant stroller, and a small bottle near a silver minivan and immediately began a search for a baby.
Family members later told investigators that the injured girl and the missing baby belonged to Cisneros. Those investigators believe that whoever killed the two women and hurt the child kidnapped the infant.
Both women were from Texico, a town about 9 miles east of Clovis.
The baby s described as 28 inches tall and about 23 pounds with brown eyes and hair. Anyone with information is asked to call the Clovis Police Department at (575) 769-1921 or call 911.
