Victim identity remains unknown after Ohio State University graduation death

Police in Columbus, Ohio, are investigating after someone fell to their death at the Ohio State University's main stadium Sunday afternoon.

Questions remain about what happened in the moments leading up to the fall, and authorities have not yet released the person's identity.

On Monday, the Franklin County coroner's office said that someone was pronounced dead at Ohio Stadium around 12:30 p.m. and that authorities were working to identify the body.

On Sunday afternoon, medics responded to the gates of the university's famed football arena, home of the Buckeyes football team, after police reported someone fell "off" the stadium, according to the Columbus Dispatch, part of the USA TODAY Network. In a statement Sunday, the university said the person had died after falling from the stands.

Photos from the scene Sunday show police and yellow tape near gate 30 of Ohio Stadium.

Ohio State University spokesperson Benjamin Johnson told USA TODAY early Monday that the school had no update on the investigation. Public information officers for the Columbus Police Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment Monday.

The Dispatch reported that the graduation ceremony continued uninterrupted after news of the fall spread throughout the crowd. Ceremony speakers did not mention the incident, according to the outlet.
