The Orange County medical examiner's office in Florida revealed that Bob Saget's cause of death was from "head trauma," his family said Wednesday.

The "America's Funniest Home Video" host and "Full House" star was found dead at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Orlando, Florida on January 9, not long after a two-hour stand-up performance at Ponte Vedra Concert Hall.

In sharing the conclusion from the medical examiner's office investigating the actor's death, Saget's family said in a statement that they felt it's "only proper that the fans hear those conclusions directly" from them.

In the statement sent by Saget's longtime publicist Michael O'Brien, the family noted that authorities have determined that "Bob passed from head trauma," USA Today reported.

They said authorities concluded that the 65-year-old actor "accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep." The family added no drugs or alcohol were involved.

According to reports, a security officer in the Ritz-Carlton hotel entered Saget's room after he failed to check out and called 911 when he was found unresponsive. 

The sheriff's department and the fire department responded to Saget's hotel room at around 4 p.m. E.T., but the actor was declared dead on the scene.

Orange County Chief Medical Examiner Joshua Stephany earlier said there was no evidence of foul play surrounding the actor's death.

Trauma surgeon Kari Jerge told USA Today that a blow to the head could push the brain "up against the skull," resulting in a concussion. Jerge added that concussion could result in two possible lethal scenarios: brain "bleeding and bruising" or asphyxiation while unconscious. 

Asphyxiation occurs when the body or brain does not get enough oxygen.
