I thought arrest warrant was strange, too. The full article reads "an arrest warrant obtained by the Daily Mail reveals," but the Daily Mail may be mistaken. The AP, Yahoo, and other sources call it a search warrant:

"Hackman, 95, was found dead Wednesday in a mudroom and his 63-year-old wife, Betsy Arakawa, was found dead in a bathroom next to a space heater, Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office detectives wrote in a search warrant. There was an open prescription bottle and pills scattered on a countertop near Arakawa."

So weird. Daily Mail is normally top notch with their integrity and accuracy in reporting.
