Watch our live report from the scene:
Agustin Garcia, the owner of La Media Luna, a convenience store just blocks from the home that has served the neighborhood for 16 years, said the two would stop in once or twice a week.
"We are really sad about it, because we [knew] them for a while now," Garcia said. "It was a young mother, young person that you never want that to happen to nobody, especially somebody so young, and like, the child is just starting to live. ... Probably was only about 10 years old."
Garcia said the pair were always friendly during their visits.
"They were really nice to me, you know? They always, when they came in, they talk to me. I talk to them, you know, and always polite to me," Garcia said.
Garcia said the last time he saw them was Sunday, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
"I didn't notice anything," Garcia said.
"Lately, she was saying that she wanted to move to New Mexico, something like that," Garcia added.
Garcia said he and other neighbors are left waiting for answers.
"We don't know what happened, but it is sad. It's really sad, especially here in the community, not because [she] was my customer, but it was somebody that I [knew]," Garcia said.
