DeKalb County officials say that an NIU student died from closed injuries after he fell from a residence hall window last Saturday night.
19-year old Oluwarotimi Okedina from Des Plaines suffered fatal injuries from the incident.
The teen dropped out of an 11th floor window at Stevenson Towers. He died a short time later at an area hospital.
Officials say that the window screen had been removed prior to the incident.
Toxicology samples following the autopsy have been sent to a private lab for testing. Once the results return to the DeKalb County Coroner's office, the cause and manner of Okedina's death will be released.
The incident remains under investigation by NIU Police and the coroner's office.
