An Alabama woman is facing charges after police say she killed her two young sons before attempting to take her own life.
The Cullman Times reports that the children, ages 9 and 3, were found slain inside a residence off of County Road 1718, near the Baileyton community in Holly Pond, close to Cullman. According to Sheriff Matt Gentry of the Cullman County Sheriff’s Office, authorities arrived at the home to find the children unresponsive. First responders pronounced both boys dead at the scene.
Authorities began searching for the children’s mother, and found her in a field around two hundred yards from the home, Al.com reports. She was found injured and in critical condition, reportedly from self-inflicted wounds. The woman, whose name has not been released, was airlifted and taken to a hospital.
Gentry said the mother has been charged in connection with the children’s deaths. Although it’s unclear exactly how the children were killed and what charges the suspect is facing, Gentry called the act “evil.”
