对演员的调查正在进行中吉恩·海克曼当局说，95岁的老人和他65岁的妻子贝特西·荒川神秘地被发现死在他们新墨西哥州圣达菲的家中，旁边还有一只狗。
据圣达菲县治安官办公室称，这对夫妇是在周三的一次福利检查中被发现的。
没有明显的迹象表明他们是怎么死的。然而，根据搜查证宣誓书，由于现场的所有“情况”，他们的死亡“性质足够可疑，需要彻底的搜查和调查”。
圣达菲县治安官办公室在周四下午的新闻发布会上说，初步尸检结果显示“两人都没有外伤”。死亡方式和原因尚未确定。
警长办公室表示，两人都被要求进行一氧化碳和毒理学测试，官方结果待定。
根据搜查令，这位奥斯卡获奖演员被发现倒在泥巴房的地板上。文件称，他似乎是突然倒下的，他和妻子“有明显的死亡迹象”。
根据搜查令，荒川被发现侧躺在浴室的地板上，她的尸体附近有一个空间加热器。
文件称，她的尸体有腐烂的迹象。文件称，她的手和脚被制成木乃伊。
根据搜查令，荒川附近的柜台上有一个打开的药瓶，上面散落着药片。
文件称，一只德国牧羊犬在离荒川大约10到15英尺的地方被发现死亡。据圣达菲县治安官阿丹·门多萨说，那只狗是在板条箱或狗窝里。
但是另外两只狗被发现还活着，看起来它们可以进入狗门，警长说。根据搜查令，一只健康的狗在荒川附近，另一只在外面。
文件称，圣达菲市消防局没有发现一氧化碳泄漏或中毒的迹象。如果现场有一氧化碳，它可能会在救援人员到达之前通过敞开的前门排出家门。
新墨西哥州天然气公司也回应说，“截至目前，没有迹象或证据表明住宅内和周围的管道有任何问题，”该文件说。
文件说，两名维修工人说，他们已经有大约两周没有听到哈克曼和荒川的消息了。
根据搜查证宣誓书，一名最初去他家的维修工人发现前门开着。文件称，但没有强行进入的迹象，也没有物品被拿走或被翻找的迹象。
没有迹象表明发生了犯罪，“门开着可能有多种原因，”警长周四告诉记者。
“没有明显的迹象或谋杀的迹象”，但当局“还没有排除这种可能性，”警长说。
他补充说，调查人员“把一切都摆在桌面上”。
门多萨说“听起来他们已经去世有一段时间了”，但他不愿推测会有多长时间。
哈克曼的女儿和孙女在一份声明中说:“他因其辉煌的演艺生涯受到了全世界数百万人的爱戴和钦佩，但对我们来说，他永远只是爸爸和爷爷。我们会非常想念他，对他的离去感到悲痛欲绝。”
Gene Hackman, wife and dog found dead in home under 'suspicious' circumstances; 2 other dogs found alive
An investigation is underway after actorGene Hackman, 95, and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, 65, were mysteriously found dead alongside a dog in their Santa Fe, New Mexico, home, authorities said.
The couple was found on Wednesday during a welfare check, according to the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office.
There were no obvious signs of how they died. However, their deaths were "suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation" due to all of the "circumstances surrounding" the scene, according to the search warrant affidavit.
Initial autopsy findings showed "no external trauma to either individual," the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office said in a press release Thursday afternoon. The manner and cause of death have not been determined.
Carbon monoxide and toxicology tests have been requested for both, with the official results pending, the sheriff's office said.
The Academy Award-winning actor was found on the floor in the mud room, according to the search warrant. It appeared he fell suddenly, and he and his wife "showed obvious signs of death," the document said.
Arakawa was found lying on her side on the floor in a bathroom, with a space heater near her body, according to the search warrant.
Her body showed signs of decomposition, the document said. There was mummification to her hands and feet, the document said.
On the counter near Arakawa was an opened prescription bottle, with pills scattered, according to the search warrant.
A German shepherd was found dead about 10 to 15 feet from Arakawa, the document said. That dog was in a crate or a kennel, according to Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza.
But two other dogs were found alive, and it appeared they had access to a doggy door, the sheriff said. One healthy dog was near Arakawa and the other was located outside, according to the search warrant.
The Santa Fe City Fire Department found no signs of a possible carbon monoxide leak or poisoning, the document said. If there was carbon monoxide at the scene, it could have vented out of the home through the open front door before responders arrived.
New Mexico Gas Company also responded, "As of now, there are no signs or evidence indicating there were any problems associated to the pipes in and around the residence," the document said.
Two maintenance workers said they hadn’t heard from Hackman and Arakawa in about two weeks, the document said.
A maintenance worker who initially responded to the home found the front door open, according to the search warrant affidavit. But there were no signs of forced entry and no signs items were taken or rummaged through, the document said.
There was no indication of a crime and "there could be a multitude of reasons why the door was open," the sheriff told reporters Thursday.
There was "no obvious sign or indication of foul play," but authorities "haven’t ruled that out yet," the sheriff said.
Investigators are "keeping everything on the table," he added.
Mendoza said it "sounds like they had been deceased for a while," but he would not speculate for how long.
Hackman's daughters and granddaughter said in a statement, "He was loved and admired by millions around the world for his brilliant acting career, but to us he was always just Dad and Grandpa. We will miss him sorely and are devastated by the loss."
