Missing TX Woman Weltzin Garcia ID’d As Body Pulled From Dallas Mountain Creek Lake

NORTH TEXAS (THECOUNT) — Weltzin Garcia, of Grand Prairie, Texas, has been identified as the body found by a kayaker floating in Dallas Mountain Creek Lake Wednesday.

Garcia and her estranged boyfriend, Alfonso Hernandez, both vanished on February 5. Hernandez was found dead days later in White Rock Lake.

On Wednesday Dallas Fire-Rescue was called to Mountain Creek Lake after a body was discovered in the water. Today that body was identified as the missing Grand Prairie mother, reports DFWCBS.

Police had issued an arrest warrant for Hernandez, for a domestic violence, just before the two went missing.

Family members had suspected Garcia was the victim of a murder-suicide, but on Friday her twin sister, Atziry, told reporters she believed her sister was still alive.

“People go missing every day and girls go missing every day and they don’t know where they are,” Atziry Garcia said. “Maybe my sister is one of those girls.”

The family was notified before investigators announced that the body found at Mountain Creek Lake was Garcia’s.

Garcia and Hernandez have two children together.
