An autopsy report reveals that acclaimed actor Gene Hackman's death was primarily caused by heart disease, amplified by advanced Alzheimer's. The 95-year-old had a history of heart issues, including congestive heart failure and an aortic valve replacement, and had been living with a pacemaker since April 2019. Investigations show Hackman likely passed a week after his wife, Betsy Arakawa, who reportedly died from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome on February 11. The discovery points to a sad and distressing end for the Hollywood legend and his partner, both of whom faced severe health challenges in their final days. Authorities conducted a thorough investigation, including interviews and searches of their home, to piece together the circumstances leading to their demise. Reports suggest Arakawa's efforts to research flu-like symptoms before her death, adding to the narrative of the couple's last days. (With inputs from agencies.)
