CSPD Seeking Kimberlee Singler in Connection to Colorado Springs Double Murder
On Tuesday, December 19, 2023, at approximately 12:29 AM, The Colorado Springs Police Communication Center received a 911 call for a burglary in the 5300 block of Palomino Ranch Point.

Two other juveniles, a 9-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, were found deceased in the residence.
The adult female was identified as 35-year-old Kimberlee Singler, who is the mother of all three children in the residence.
Ms. Singler and her 11-year-old daughter were treated for their injuries on the scene by the Colorado Springs Fire Department and American Medical Response prior to being transported to local hospitals for further medical treatment. The Colorado Springs Police Department Homicide Unit responded to the scene and assumed the investigation.
