April 29--A man found dead in a room at Apple's Cupertino, Calif., headquarters was identified Thursday as a 25-year-old employee of the tech giant, authorities said.
Investigators also determined that Edward Mackowiak took his own life and died from a gunshot to the head, said Sgt. Andrea Urena of the Santa Clara County sheriff's office.
Mackowiak's body was found Wednesday in a conference room with a gun nearby, Bay Area television station KGO-TV reported.
Paramedics had been dispatched to the campus about 8:35 a.m. after a report of a man with a "head wound," but were called off before going into the building, Santa Clara County Fire Department spokeswoman Stephanie Stuehler said.
Urena had previously told The Times that investigators did not believe foul play was involved in Mackowiak's death and that no other individuals were involved.
"This appeared to be an isolated incident and no employees or members of the public are at risk," Urena said in an email.
In a statement, reported by the Associated Press, Apple said: "We are heartbroken by the tragic loss of a young and talented coworker. Our thoughts and deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends, including the many people he worked with here at Apple."
