BROWNWOOD, Texas (AP) — A family renovating a rural home they had lived in for three years found an old trash bag in an attic crawl space containing the mummified bodies of three infants. Authorities said Sunday they were investigating the deaths as homicides.
"One baby was wrapped in a towel, one baby was in a blanket, and the baby we originally found was wrapped in a sheet inside a paper sack," said Chief Deputy Mike McCoy of the county sheriff's department.
McCoy said authorities were searching for the home's prior occupants and no arrests had been made.
