Legendary actor Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa were found dead Wednesday in their New Mexico home, along with their dog, in circumstances officials deemed “suspicious enough” to warrant thorough investigation.

Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza told NBC's “Today” show that investigators were trying to sort out conflicting stories about the doors. He said several doors were unlocked and a rear door was open, which allowed two dogs that survived to go in and out. He also said he thinks the front door was closed but unlocked.

Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa have both been found dead, according to a report from the Sante Fe New Mexican. The bodies of Hackman, 95, and Arakawa, 63, were both discovered in their New Mexico residence on Wednesday afternoon,
