The death of a ground crew worker who was sucked into the engine of Delta Airlines plane at San Antonio International Airport Friday has been ruled a suicide by the Bexar County Medical Examiners Office, KENS5 reports.

According to the TV station, 27-year-old David Renner died of blunt and sharp force trauma. Due to the death being ruled a suicide, the National Transportation Safety Board will no longer be opening an investigation into the incident.

On Friday, Delta Flight 1111 arrived at San Antonio International from Los Angeles, when a grounds crew worker was “ingested” into one of its engines at about 10:25 p.m., according to an NTSB obtained by MySA.

Renner, who worked for a company contracted by Delta Airlines, was pronounced dead at the scene.
