On Tuesday, the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed the tragic deaths of Savannah Kriger and her 3-year-old son, Kaiden. Their lifeless bodies were discovered in Tom Slick Park, each suffering from a single gunshot wound to the head.

The investigators have ruled Kaiden’s death a homicide, and it is believed that Savannah, 32, shot her son before taking her own life. Deputies discovered a gun near their bodies, reinforcing this theory. The tragic circumstances surrounding their deaths have left the community in shock and mourning.

Amber Alert Issued for Kaiden

The situation began to unfold on March 19, when an Amber Alert was issued for Kaiden. This alert followed a frantic search by deputies who, the night before, had been looking for Savannah Kriger and her son after finding concerning evidence in her west Bexar County home. This evidence prompted immediate concern for their safety.

Savannah’s car, a 2023 Lincoln Aviator, was later found parked at Tom Slick Park off Highway 151. It was here, after daylight broke on March 19, that a Park Police officer made the grim discovery of their bodies in a drainage ditch near the park.

Custody Hearing Scheduled for the Day of Discovery

Adding to the tragedy, Savannah was due in court on the same day her body was found. She was scheduled to attend a hearing regarding the custody of her son. This court date underscored the turbulent and emotionally charged circumstances leading up to the events.
