A new report reveals what police believe occurred during the final hours leading up to Bob Saget’s death.
As previously revealed, the late “Full House” star was found dead on January 9th in an Orlando, Florida hotel room as a “result of blunt head trauma.” He was 65.
Results of the autopsy noted Saget suffered fractures to his head and eyes most likely from falling and hitting his head. The Orange County Medical Examiner’s report listed other injuries including posterior scalp abrasions, subgaleal hemorrhage, discoloration to his eyelids, and subarachnoid hemorrhage. In addition, no illicit drugs or toxins were found in his system.
According to People, police now believe Saget lost consciousness after falling on the marble floor in the hotel room’s bathroom and hitting his head.
The authorities theorize Saget later regained consciousness and made his way into his bed, before losing consciousness again and dying, the outlet reported.
People noted that police checked the marble end tables and counters in the bathroom and found no traces of blood.
Saget’s time of death is estimated to be at 4 a.m. His body was found 12 hours later, the outlet said.
"It's definitely an unusual case," an Orange County Sheriff's deputy told People. "There are still a lot of unanswered questions."

Upon arriving at the Ritz-Carlton Orlando Grande Lakes, Saget was said to be in good spirits and “cracking jokes.”
"When people asked for selfies, he would run over and grab their phones to take the pictures with them, joking the whole time,” a hotel employee told People. “He was a ball of happy, positive energy."
