Spain’s Guardia Civil is thoroughly investigating the deaths of two men in the town of Veguellina de Órbigo, León. The incident took place early on Sunday morning (the 23rd), when the two middle-aged men were discovered lifeless on the street.
The Incident: A Shocking Discovery in the Early Morning
The incident occurred in the small town of Veguellina de Órbigo in the province of León. On Sunday morning local time, a passerby discovered the two unresponsive men and immediately called the police. Emergency services arrived quickly at the scene but confirmed that both men were deceased. The deceased were 57 and 59 years old, respectively.
Scene Examination: No Obvious Signs of Violence
According to investigators, the bodies of the two men were found next to each other, in front of the residence of one of the deceased. A preliminary examination by the forensic doctor revealed no obvious signs of violence or struggle on their bodies. To determine the specific cause of death and the circumstances of the incident, the Judicial Police (Policía Judicial) unit of the Guardia Civil has sealed off the area and begun a detailed on-site investigation and evidence collection.
Identity of the Deceased: Local Residents and Longtime Friends
The town’s mayor confirmed to the media that both deceased men were local residents and had been friends for many years. There were no reports within the community of any recent disputes or conflicts between them. Reportedly, the location where they were found dead was also the last place they were seen earlier that morning (in the early hours of the day).
Direction of the Investigation: No Possibilities Ruled Out
Currently, the investigation is in its early stages. The authorities in charge of the case have stated that until autopsy results and more evidence become available, investigators are keeping an open mind to all possibilities and are not ruling out any hypotheses, including an accident, sudden illness, or other causes. The final determination of the case will depend on the progress of the investigation.
