After Discovery of Bodies in Sauna in Lower Austria: Police Suspect CO Accident or Extended Suicide

A 47-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman were found lifeless in the early afternoon. It could be a CO accident or an extended suicide, confirmed Stefan Pfandler, head of the LKA Lower Austria, upon request of an online report by "Kurier". The fire department was alerted due to smoke development, reported Pfandler. Previously, a stove is believed to have been lit. "Letter-like documents were found," said Pfandler. It was being examined whether these were farewell letters. The State Criminal Office of Lower Austria (Department of Body/Life and Crime Scene Group) was on site.
