The Ivy League dad who threw his two young children off a Pennsylvania parking garage before jumping after them died from multiple blunt force injuries, officials revealed, as his death was ruled a suicide.

Patrick Lynch, 42, his son James, 8, and daughter Caroline, 6, were found dead near the foot of a five-story parking garage in the affluent Pittsburgh suburb of Mt. Lebanon at around 4:15 p.m. Tuesday, in what authorities have since described as “not an accident.”
