A man "fell or jumped" to his death Tuesday morning from the top of a bus parking ramp in Eden Prairie, authorities said.

The man descended from the fifth level of the SouthWest Transit Station parking ramp at 13500 Technology Drive sometime around 8 a.m., according to a statement from the city.

His identity has yet to be released.

Police and fire personnel found the man's body on the southwest side of the ramp.

"At this time, it appears foul play was not involved, and … the adult male fell or jumped," according to the city's statement.
