By OLGA R. RODRIGUEZ and DAMIAN DOVARGANES<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n LOS ANGELES \u2014 The mother of three children \u2014 all under the age of 5 \u2014 found slain inside a Los Angeles apartment Saturday morning has been arrested, police said.<\/p>\n Liliana Carrillo, 30, was arrested in Tulare County, about 200 miles (322 kilometers) north of Los Angeles. It wasn\u2019t immediately known if she had a lawyer who could speak on her behalf.<\/p>\n The children\u2019s grandmother returned home from work and found their bodies and the mother missing, Los Angeles police Lt. Raul Jovel said.<\/p>\n The Los Angeles Police Department tweeted the children appeared to be under 5 years old. A police spokesman initially said they were under the age of 3.<\/p>\n The gruesome discovery was made around 9:30 a.m. in the 8000 block of Reseda Boulevard, Jovel said.<\/p>\n Police said initial reports suggested the children had been stabbed to death, but no official cause of death has been released.<\/p>\n Jovel said investigators were still working to determine a motive.<\/p>\n The department received reports Carrillo was driving her car and heading north on Interstate 5 when she got in an altercation in the Bakersfield area. She abandoned her car and carjacked another vehicle, Jovel said.<\/p>\n Carrillo was detained in the Ponderosa area of Tulare County, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) north of Bakersfield, police said.<\/p>\n \u201cAt this point, she is a suspect in this incident but that doesn\u2019t exclude other people,\u201d Jovel said.<\/p>\n Lupe Cuevas, a neighbor of Carrillo and her children, told the San Bernardino Sun that she interacted with the three children and their grandmother during afternoon walks around the neighborhood.<\/p>\n One of the children, a girl, was drawn to her Chihuahua, Rosie, Cuevas told the newspaper.<\/p>\n \u201cThose babies were such sweet little ones,\u201d she said. \u201cIt hurts.\u201d<\/p>\n Cuevas said she thought the girl was the middle child of the three.<\/p>\n \u201cShe wasn\u2019t shy. She was sweet.\u201d Cuevas said. \u201cAn angel shouldn\u2019t have to go that way.\u201d<\/p>\n ___<\/p>\n Rodriguez contributed to this report from San Francisco.<\/p>\n
