Police said Mehmood was taken into custody on an unrelated warrant, KHOU-TV reported.
The children and their mother were found after a relative called the police around 6:15 p.m. to perform a welfare check at their apartment complex, a police statement said.
The slain children were identified by police as an infant girl, a toddler boy and a 5-year-old girl. The mother suffered a gunshot wound to the head but was not identified, a police statement said.
