A Texas woman is facing charges, following the hot car deaths of her two children.

News 4 San Antonio reported that on Saturday, Tiona Lasaisha Islar said she found her children, Sevani Stevenson, 6, and Miyani Islar, 3, dead in a vehicle.

At around 3:00 p.m., Bexar County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a call at a home on Chancery Gate and Appleton Way in the Far West Side of Bexar County, near Alamo Ranch.

When deputies arrived, they attempted life-saving measures on the two children until EMS arrived.

Islar told law enforcement that she last saw her two children in the house before lying down to sleep around 10 a.m. The information Islar gave was reportedly inconsistent.

 

According to Sheriff Salazar, “Something is not adding up about this case”

“The initial report was for children who were left in the car but I can tell you that unfortunately, without going into too much detail, there just are some inconsistencies with the stories at present. I’m not confident enough to tell you all that’s definitely what happened.”

Child Protective Services (CPS) was also called to the scene. Police arrested Islar the same day for Injury to a Child SBI/Death, Fox San Antonio reported.

The sheriff’s office is encouraging neighbors who may have video between the hours of 1:00 and 3:30 p.m. on Saturday in the area of Chancery Gate and Appleton Way to contact BCSO at 210-335-6000 or email BCSOTIPS@bexar.org.

The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office is working to determine the official cause of death for both children.

Jan Null, CCM, an adjunct professor of meteorology at San Jose State University, has provided the statistics of hot car deaths in the U.S. at NoHeatstroke.org.
