A man who died in a fall at the Los Angeles International Airport was an employee who took his own life, officials said Monday.

At about 8:15 p.m. on Sunday, firefighters responded to the customs level of LAX for a 27-year-old man who was injured from a fall, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The man was “beyond medical help” and was pronounced dead at the scene, the Fire Department said in a statement.

Los Angeles Airport Police later told KTLA the man died by suicide. The agency said it could not provide any further information, including the employee’s identity or his role.
