Four dead babies have been found in a storage locker in Canada.
Police in Winnipeg said the corpses of the infants were so decomposed they “believed” but could not confirm they were dealing with four bodies.
Spokesman Eric Hofley said: “Autopsies are pending, but my understanding is we are discussing very young infants, certainly not children. Newborns.
“The remains were in a state such that it is not obvious yet whether we are dealing with four separate remains. That will be done at autopsy.”
It was unclear if “foul play” was involved but there were no known reports of missing infants.
The bodies were discovered in a “U-Haul” storage locker on Monday.
There are no suspects in custody, although Mr Hofley said investigators have spoken with people of interest.
Even if it wasn’t a case of foul play, “You’re not allowed to store human remains in a storage locker,” he said.
