A 46-year-old man was found dead on New York Mets grounds on Friday after falling from the second-floor staircase, the New York Police Department confirmed to The Hill.

The man was found at Citi Field in Queens, NY. He was discovered after “suffering injuries consistent with falling from a high position,” according to a statement by NYPD spokesperson Detective Sophia Mason, CNN reported.

It is currently unclear whether the situation was accidental.

The man, whose name has not been released, was transported in critical condition to New York-Presbyterian Hospital in Queens where he was later pronounced dead.

Rock band Dead & Company performed at Citi Field on Friday night, however, it is not clear if the man fell during the concert.

“We are aware of a tragic incident which unfortunately left one dead last night,” New York Mets spokesman Harold Kaufman told CNN. “Our deepest condolences go out to those close to the participant.”
