'Oscar-winning US actor Gene Hackman, his wife Betsy Arakawa and their dog have been found dead at their
home in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

In a career spanning more than six decades, Hackman received two Academy Awards for his work on the movies
The French Connection and Unforgiven.

A statement from the Santa Fe County Sheriff in New Mexico said: "We can confirm that both Gene Hackman and
his wife were found deceased Wednesday afternoon at their residence on Sunset Trail.

"This is an active investigation - however, at this time we do not believe that foul play was a factor."
Hackman was 95, and his wife - a classical pianist - 64.
