CLOVIS, N.M. — The Clovis Police Department revealed crucial details on Monday regarding the suspect involved in the abduction of an infant following a tragic double homicide just north of Clovis on May 3. The suspect has been identified as Alek Collins, a 26-year-old individual from Houston.

The Clovis Police Department reported that Collins and 10-month-old Eleia Maria Torres were discovered at a residence in Abilene. It was noted by authorities that the suspect seemed to have no prior connection to the victims.

Initial police response took place at Ned Houk Park, situated five miles north of Clovis, around 4:26 p.m. The bodies of Samantha “Harley” Cisneros and Taryn Allen, both 23-year-old individuals from Texico, were found lifeless with gunshot wounds outside of a silver minivan. A 5-year-old girl was also discovered with a gunshot wound to her head and was subsequently transported to a hospital in Lubbock. Additionally, baby Eleia was reported missing.
