Back on Monday, Aug. 12, Braves fan Ronald Homer died from blunt force trauma after falling 85 feet from Atlanta's Turner Field and landing in a parking lot.
The death was initially ruled an accident by authorities, possibly due in part to an extended rain delay preceding the fall and subsequent death.
Though there was no surveillance footage available of the fall, police have now reported that the death has been ruled a suicide.
Details from the Associated Press:
Homer was 30 years old. He had a phone conversation with his mother prior to his death where he told her he loved her.
