SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS - A Texas mother has been arrested after she told police her two children died in a hot car, but authorities have found 'inconsistencies' in her story.
Tiona Islar, the mother of six-year-old Sevani Stevenson and three-year-old Miyani Islar, told police she last saw her children alive in her San Antonio area home around 10am on Saturday.
Islar said she fell asleep and found the children in her car around 3pm before bringing them inside, according to Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar.
The mother added that the siblings must have made their way outside and somehow gotten into the car.
She called police around 3:25pm and a deputy arrived who tried to perform CPR on both children at the same time.
The attempts to save them were unsuccessful and the siblings were pronounced dead at the scene, Salazar said.
'There just are some inconsistencies with the story we're being given,' the sheriff noted.
'I'm not confident enough to give you all that that's definitively what happened,' he added.
Islar, 28, was arrested on felony charges of injury to a child. The sheriff said she has been 'mostly' cooperative and that he hopes conversations with her will be able to shed more light on what happened.
