Elizabeth Wagmeister@EWagmeisterAuthorities say the "circumstances surrounding the death" of Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa are "suspicious enough in nature" to require a thorough investigation. Earlier today, police said foul play was not suspected.Here are new details, per the search warrant we've obtained at CNN:* The causes of death have not been confirmed* Gene and his wife appeared to have died days before their bodies were discovered* They were discovered by maintenance workers * Their bodies were found in different rooms * Betsy was found lying on the ground in a bathroom with a space heater near her head & an open bottle of prescription pills on a countertop nearby...pills were scattered on the counter* Their dead dog was found in the bathroom closet. (Two other dogs were found healthy elsewhere in the home.)* Hackman?s body was discovered on the ground in another room near the kitchen. A deputy ?suspected the male individual has suddenly fallen" * The front door was opened and unsecured, but there were no signs of forced entry or theft* The investigation found no immediate signs of a carbon monoxide leak or natural gas leak
