KATU News reports that an elderly Oregon couple committed suicide this week by running their car in their garage while leaving the house door open. Officials involved with the investigation reportedly suspect that the couple believed they had few choices after receiving notice that their home was being foreclosed upon.
Deputies responded to a call from neighbors who grew concerned when the elderly couple did not answer the door and when the couple's several dogs were not in sight, sources say. The couple's four golden retrievers were also found dead in the house.
Some of the responding officers grew sick from the carbon monoxide fumes in the house, but were treated quickly and returned to good health.
