The man who ran in front of a Frontier Airlines plane at Denver International Airport last Friday died by suicide, the local medical examiner confirmed on Tuesday.
Michael Mott, 41, trespassed onto airport property by jumping over the perimeter fence just before 11:20 p.m. as the Los Angeles-bound flight was lifting for takeoff. He got caught in the engine, leading to a brief fire and causing pilots to evacuate the jet.
