Mother, son identified after killing in Colorado Springs

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- Lizet Salinas was just 26 years old and with her eight-month-old son when they were both shot and killed this week at a home in Colorado Springs.

Family members identified Salinas and her son, George, as the victims in a double-homicide that's still under investigation by the Colorado Springs Police Department.

"She always wanted to have kids. She always wanted to be a mother," said Lizbeth Salinas, Lizet's twin sister. "That was her main goal in life."

CSPD officers arrested a suspect, 29-year-old David Weingarten, for suspicion of first-degree murder. Colorado Court records say Weingarten is facing two counts of first-degree murder and one count of first-degree murder - victim under 12/position of trust.

We're still working on getting information about Weingarten's alleged crimes. According to a Gofundme account started by the family, Lizet "risked herself trying to protect her loved ones."

Police found a juvenile girl at the scene who was uninjured. Family members told KRDO the child is Lizet's first child named Amber Marie (1 year and 8 months).
