Hollywood actor Gene Hackman, 95, and his wife Betsy Arakawa, 64, died under mysterious circumstances in their Santa Fe home, leading authorities to deem the deaths suspicious. Although there were initial claims by police that foul play was ruled out, investigators noted the need for a thorough inquiry. The couple was discovered by a maintenance worker after the front door was found open. Circumstances surrounding their deaths, including a spilled bottle of pills and a space heater, are being closely examined by detectives.
The grim discovery was made by a maintenance worker who checked inside the household after noticing that the couple's front door was left open.
Hackman and Arakawa's deaths are 'suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation,' as quoted by NBC.
In the bathroom where Arakawa was found, a bottle of pills was spilled on the countertop, possibly suggesting a medical issue.
Neither body showed obvious signs of trauma, police said, stressing that it's still early into the investigation.
