A "pocket dial" to 911 on Monday led police to a woman and her three children who were being held captive at knifepoint in Nevada.

The Mesquite Police Department said 34-year-old Justin Carter tried to stab the woman while in his home city of Las Vegas before kidnapping her and her three children, KVVU Las Vegas reported.

Police said the woman and Carter had a prior relationship. Carter reportedly drove the woman and children to Mesquite, which is approximately 80 miles away and near the Utah state line.
