Bob Saget's family says that according to authorities, the actor died due to head trauma

Bob Saget's family has released a statement saying that authorities determined that the man's death was the consequence of trauma to his head.

"The authorities have determined that Bob passed from head trauma. They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep," the statement noted. "No drugs or alcohol were involved."

"As we continue to mourn together, we ask everyone to remember the love and laughter that Bob brought to this world, and the lessons he taught us all: to be kind to everyone, to let the people you love know you love them, and to face difficult times with hugs and laughter," the statement said.

Last month, the Orange County Sheriff's office noted that authorities had not uncovered any indication of foul play.

"Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room. The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case," the sheriff's office tweeted on Jan. 9.

The 65-year-old actor and comedian widely known for his role on the TV sitcom "Full House," had been performing shows in Florida.

"I’m back in comedy like I was when I was 26. I guess I’m finding my new voice and loving every moment of it," Saget said in his final Instagram post.
