A Utah woman accused of killing seven babies she gave birth to over 10 years was arrested Sunday after police discovered the tiny bodies stuffed in separate cardboard boxes in the garage of her former home, according to CNN.

Megan Huntsman, 39, who lived in the Utah home until three years ago, had the infants between 1996 and 2006, investigators said, CNN reported.

Officers responded to a call Saturday from Huntsman's estranged husband about a dead infant at the home in Pleasant Grove, 35 miles south of Salt Lake City, police Captain Michael Roberts said, according to CNN. Officers then discovered the six other bodies.

"A search warrant was obtained for the residence and during the execution of the warrant, officers discovered six additional infant bodies. Each infant was found packaged in separate containers," the police statement read, according to CNN.

Roberts declined to comment on a motive and what Huntsman said during an interview with investigators, CNN reported.

The spokesman said the estranged husband lived with Huntsman when the babies were born but isn't a person of interest at this time, according to CNN. The man's name was not immediately released.

The babies' bodies were sent to the Utah medical examiner's office for tests, including one to determine the cause of death, CNN reported. DNA samples taken from the suspect and her husband will determine definitively whether the two are the parents as investigators believe.

The house in a middle-class neighborhood is owned by the husband's parents, and the man was cleaning out the garage when he made the grisly discovery, according to CNN.

Roberts said the case has been "emotionally draining" and upsetting to investigators, CNN reported. He was at the home when the bodies were discovered.

Huntsman was booked Sunday into the Utah County Jail on six counts of murder, according to CNN. Roberts said it wasn't clear if she has an attorney.
