On the afternoon of the 12th, a couple in their 70s who lived in the house in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, were found dead, sitting in a wheelchair. According to the police, there were signs of fire in multiple rooms of the house, and the police believe that the two may have been unable to escape from the fire, so they are looking into the details of the situation.
According to the police, just before 4 p.m. on the 12th, a relative reported that ``two people were dead at the front door'' of the residence of Mr. Hayashi Fujisawa (74) in Katsuho-cho, Nagaoka City.
When the police and fire department arrived, they found Mr. Fujisawa and his wife, Masae Fujisawa (71), both sitting in wheelchairs, dead at the entrance of the residence.
A helper who visited the couple around 3:30 p.m. on the 12th found them unresponsive, so they contacted their relatives and found them at the front door.
According to the police, there were no obvious injuries or burns on the two people, and since fire marks were found in multiple rooms of the house, police believe that the two may have been unable to escape from the fire. I'm looking into the situation in detail.
