After the discovery of two lifeless men on Wednesday in a Sparkasse branch in Schleswig, the police are not assuming that a crime has been committed. There is no evidence of external influence, said a police spokesman. When the emergency services arrived, one man was already dead and the other died despite resuscitation measures.

The 35-year-old and the 39-year-old from Schleswig slept in an anteroom of the bank. They were discovered there around 7.20 in the morning. An autopsy is to determine why they died.
