A Colorado mother suspected of killing two of her children and attempting to kill a third has been arrested in the United Kingdom, according to local police.
Authorities have issued an arrest warrant for Kimberlee Singler on charges of murder and attempted murder after her 7-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter were found dead at a home and her 11-year-old daughter was taken to a hospital, CNN reported. Singler was arrested "without incident" at an undisclosed location in the UK on Saturday, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department.
"Detectives with the Colorado Springs Police Department's homicide unit continue to work closely with multiple law enforcement agencies in pursuing the ongoing investigation," the release said. The department said more information about the arrest would be released at a press conference at a later date.
Police initially responded to Singler's home on Dec. 19 after receiving a 911 call about a burglary. When they arrived, they found her 7-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter dead, authorities said. They also found Singler and her 11-year-old daughter alive, who were both taken to the hospital.
Singler was initially considered the victim, based on the initial burglary report, but she became a suspect as the investigation unfolded, Colorado State Police previously told CNN. She was initially cooperative with the police, but then stopped cooperating and the police could not get in touch with her.
"Until we had probable cause, we weren't able to hold him for any reason," Ira Cronin, public information officer for the Colorado Springs Police Department, previously told CNN.
Her 11-year-old daughter was released from the hospital a few days after the incident. She is recovering from her injuries and is not with her mother, Cronin added. Singler faces four counts of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder. Charges for each alleged crime were doubled because the children were under the age of 12, according to a news release.
