After the discovery of two corpses in the Swabian market town of Altenstadt (district of Neu-Ulm), the investigation by the police continues. A police spokesman said on Monday morning that it was not yet known who killed the 70-year-old man and the 55-year-old woman. Relatives had not reached the couple and therefore went to their family home on Saturday. That’s where they found the bodies, it was said.
After the autopsies of the bodies, the investigators assume a double killing by one or more perpetrators. For tactical reasons, the police did not want to comment on the more precise circumstances and a possible motive. How the perpetrators got into the house was initially unclear. According to the information, the police found no obvious signs of a break-in. For the extensive investigations, the Kripo formed an investigation team.
