A Gas Leak And Carbon Monoxide Investigation On Gene Hackman's House Just Reported Its Findings

The gas company, though, apparently noted there was a “minuscule leak” of 0.33% gas in air — which the office described as a nonlethal amount — at one of the stove burners. The company also identified some code enforcement violations “not involving gas leaks or carbon monoxide” in a water heater and gas log lighters installed in three fireplaces.

“Those results are not believed to be a factor in the deaths of Gene Hackman, Betsy Arakawa or their dog, though the information was relayed to the Office of the Medical Investigator for consideration,” the sheriff’s office added.
