Baby girl, mother hospitalized after shooting in Texas City

Officials say a baby girl and her mother were hospitalized following a shooting in Texas City overnight Saturday. 

Details were scarce as it's an active investigation, so it's unclear what led up to the shooting.

While officers were en route to the call, they were asked to find a woman outside the apartment, who said she was hit by a bullet. 

Police found the woman with a gunshot wound to her leg and while tending to her injuries, she asked if officers could check on her child in the apartment. 

Inside the apartment, authorities say they found a baby girl, about 2 to 3-years-old in bed with several gunshot wounds.
