Penn State Student Death Ruled Accidental

The Centre County coroner’s office has officially made a ruling in the death of 19-year-old Justine Gross, the Penn State student who was reported missing in November and was later found dead after falling down an 11-story trash chute. Investigators say Gross suffered “multiple, acute blunt force trauma” as a result of the fall and her death has officially been deemed an accident. Authorities say the toxicology report showed that Gross had both marijuana and alcohol in her system at the time of her death.
