The incident started around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday when three children, ages 4, 5, and 8, were found walking alone near Interstate 10.

EMS workers provided life-saving measures on the woman due to blood loss.

Police are trying to figure out if these wounds were self-inflicted or if she was a victim of a violent crime.
Investigators were told that woman's boyfriend was at the apartment at some point during the event, but they've been unable to locate him.
