Authorities are investigating after two fetuses were found on a city bus in Baltimore over the weekend, police said.

A bit after 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, a Maryland Transit Administration bus driver discovered a fetus on a seat in the bus, said the Baltimore Police Department in a statement sent to USA TODAY.

Initial reports indicated only one fetus had been found on the bus, but police confirmed Monday that a second fetus was discovered. The department did not specify when the second fetus was found.

According to the chief medical examiner's office, both fetuses were stillborn.

The fetuses were transferred to the medical examiner's office.
