Authorities investigating the death of an American lawyer at a resort in Mexico have learned that a cut on the man's forehead could not have been the result of a fall from his balcony.

Elliot Blair, 33, was found dead on the grounds of the Las Rocas Resort and Spa in Playas de Rosarito, Baja California, during the early hours of Saturday morning.

The Orange County public defender was celebrating his first wedding anniversary with his Kimberly Williams, also a public defender in Orange County, when he fell to his death from the third-floor balcony after the couple had gone out for dinner.

A local law enforcement official told ABC News on Monday that the injury that Blair sustained on his forehand 'would not have been caused by a fall.'
