Murder or accident? Sad discovery shocks Rheinau-Helmlingen!

In a tragic incident in Alberndorf im Pulkautal, two lifeless bodies were found. Police believe it was a violent crime followed by suicide. A 58-year-old man is said to have shot his 51-year-old wife before taking his own life. The State Criminal Police Office's investigations are headed towards killing on demand, as the man's serious illness is suspected as a possible motive. This reported Kosmo.at, which mentioned information about the suicide note found at the crime scene and the legal handgun used in the crime. Friends of the couple called the police after they had had no contact with them for a long time.

Body discovered under vehicle

Stadtanzeiger Ortenau berichtet, war die Todesursache und die Umstände des Vorfalls zu diesem Zeitpunkt unklar, sodass sowohl ein Unglücksfall als auch Suizid nicht ausgeschlossen werden konnten. Am Einsatzort wurde ein Notarzt verständigt, der nur den Tod des Mannes feststellen konnte. Ein Hund befand sich derweil im Kofferraum des Fahrzeugs, was die Recherche weiter kompliziert.

The fire department cordoned off the scene to protect both the body and the vehicle from the impending heavy rain. The investigators now have their hands full clarifying the exact sequences of the two tragic incidents.
