Back in March, tragedy struck the Amherst College football team as senior Andrew Dorogi was found dead in Mexico City.

Investigators were looking at the case as a potential homicide or suicide at first, but now more details have emerged in the incident.

According to ABC News, Dorogi was electrocuted at a Mexico City train station. The investigation is still open, though, according to authorities:

After an autopsy, Dorogi died of electrocution, according to the Mexico City AG’s office. The investigation is still active, authorities told ABC News.

Dorogi was studying economics at Amherst and played defensive back on the football team. He was 21 at the time of his death.
