Ulm (dpa / lsw) - Because she is suspected of having killed her two children, a 36-year-old was provisionally arrested on Monday.
The father of the two three and six-year-old children found them dead in the shared apartment in the Ehingen area (Alb-Donau district) on Monday morning, the police said.
The police immediately started the investigation and searched for the children's mother with a large contingent.
She was provisionally arrested a little later and taken to a hospital as a precaution.
The woman was not in a condition for questioning, it said.
The police initially did not want to say why the suspicion was directed against the mother.
The police initially did not provide any information about the cause of death of the children either.
The public prosecutor's office ordered an autopsy of the children.
Both the course of events and the background to the act are still unclear, said a spokeswoman.
