The emotional 911 call made by a maintenance worker after discovering the bodies of Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, has been released.

Hours after news broke of their tragic deaths, TMZ obtained audio of an employee frantically pleading for the dispatcher to send first responders to the New Mexico home.

The man, whose name was redacted, told the operator that he “found two or one deceased person[s] inside a house.”

“Please send somebody really quick,” he begged.

As the dispatcher paused to call for the paramedics, the caller began crying while repeatedly saying, “Damn.”

However, the man didn’t seem to have a personal connection to Hackman, 95, and Arakawa, 64, as he could not tell the dispatcher any personal details about them.

“[It’s] a female and a male probably. I don’t know, sir. Just send somebody up here really quick,” he said.

The caller said he had “no idea” if the two were “awake” or “breathing” because he “was not inside the house” with them.

“[The house] is closed. It’s locked. I can’t go in,” he said. “But I see that she is lying down on the floor from the window.”

He insisted they were not “awake” or “alert” and saw no signs of movement.

“No, dude, they’re not moving!” he said while growing increasingly concerned. “Just send somebody out here really quick!”

The man suggested he worked for the gated community where the couple lived and instructed the officers to meet him at the front entrance.

Once police entered the home, they found Arakawa lying on her right side in the bathroom. The Santa Fe detective who examined the scene said there was “bloating in her face and mummification in her hands and feet.”

There were pills strewn atop the bathroom countertop and evidence that she may have fallen suddenly.

Given the state of her body, authorities believe she was dead for some time.

Meanwhile, her husband was found in a separate room off the kitchen. Police believe he, too, may have fallen as his glasses were located next to his body.

While two of the couple’s dogs were found alive and healthy, the third was discovered dead “10-15 feet” away from Arakawa.

The workers who found Hackman and the classical pianist told police they hadn’t seen them in about two weeks.

A search warrant was issued for the home as authorities believe their deaths are “suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation.”

Although it was originally assumed the two died from carbon monoxide poisoning, there were “no obvious signs of a gas leak” following an inspection by the fire department and the New Mexico gas company.
