Two dogs were reportedly found alive and “healthy” at the home of Gene Hackman in Santa Fe, New Mexico, after he, wife Betsy Arakawa and a third dog were found dead.

Multiple outlets obtained a search-warrant affidavit following news that the couple and their pet had died, with the bodies being discovered at their residence on Wednesday, Feb. 26, per a statement from Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office public information officer, Denise Womack-Avila.

According to the affidavit, obtained by Variety from state authorities, “Deputies observed a healthy dog running loose on the property” and “another healthy dog near the deceased female.”

Hackman, 95, was found dead in a mudroom, per the AP, citing the sheriff’s office comments in the search warrant, while Arakawa, 64, was found dead in a bathroom, with a space heater nearby.

“A deceased dog laying 10-15 feet from the deceased female in a closet of the bathroom” was also found per the affidavit, Variety reported, going on to say that other findings included “the heater being moved, the pill bottle being opened and pills scattered next to the female, the male decedent being located in a separate room of the residence, and no obvious signs of a gas leak.”

The deputy who found Arakawa’s body “advised he suspected the heater could have fallen in the event the female abruptly fell to the ground,” said the affidavit, according to the outlet.

It continued, per Variety, to say that Arakawa “showed obvious signs of death, body decomposition, bloating in her face and mummification in both hands and feet.”

Womack-Avila also said there were no obvious wounds to either Hackman nor his wife, like a gunshot for example, according to Variety.

The deaths of Hackman and Arakawa are “suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation,” the affidavit said, per ABC News.

Police were first called to the residence on Old Sunset Trail in Santa Fe around 1:45 p.m. on Wednesday, “where Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa and a dog were found deceased,” Womack-Avila said in a statement.

She added that “foul play is not suspected as a factor in those deaths at this time, however, the exact cause of death has not been determined.”

The sheriff’s office told TMZ that The French Connection star and his wife’s bodies had been in their home for at least a day before deputies found them deceased.

Authorities also shared that there is “an active and ongoing investigation” into the couple’s deaths, according to NBC News.
