Sheriff's office IDs 4 people killed in El Paso County home

The sheriff's office believes the suspect killed Yvette Kreb, 50, Felicity Kreb, 13, and 9-year-old Barrett Kreb before taking his own life.

EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. — Two adults and two juveniles were found dead inside a home just north of Colorado Springs Saturday morning, according to the El Paso County Sheriff's Office (EPCSO).

According to the sheriff's office, someone called 911 just after 10 a.m. to report someone was possibly seriously injured and needed help at a home on Pleier Drive, which is in a neighborhood northeast of Interstate 25 and North Gate Boulevard.

When deputies arrived at the home, they found two juveniles and two adults dead, according to the news release from EPSCO. Deputies are investigating the deaths as an apparent murder-suicide. 

On Monday, the sheriff's office identified the four people killed. They are:

  • Yvette Siegert-Kreb, 50
  • Felicity Kreb, 13
  • Barrett Kreb, 9
  • Christof Kreb, 55

The sheriff's office believes Christof killed Yvette, Felicity and Barrett before taking his own life.

EPSCO said based on the evidence and observations of the scene, an emergency alert was sent to the community. Residents of the community were told to stay in their homes. At the time, residents did not have details of the incident. The shelter in place order was later lifted.

EPSCO said the investigation is ongoing.
