The preliminary results of autopsies performed Friday (December 10, 2010) on the two bodies found dead in Hilo on Wednesday (December 8, 2010) failed to identify the exact causes of death.

Police say the bodies of 44-year old Jon P. Gizewski and 49-year old Jackie Lynn Baker were found in separate areas of the home on Kilaueau Avenue across from the Hilo Shopping Center. The same location that was once operated as Buck’s Firearms.

Police investigators say no foul play is suspected.  Police did not say how Gizewski and Baker were related.

Various tenants rented rooms and lived at the residence over the years.
