"The decedent was located lying supine in the passenger seat. The top of his head facing west. His right arm was bent at the elbow with his right hand in the air, parallel with the central portion of his torso.

  • Epidural clotting, right-sided.
  • Scant soot present within the trachea.
  • Left mandible fracture.
  • Left clavicle fracture.
  • Left humerus fracture.
  • Multiple rib fractures.
  • Multiple pelvic fractures.
  • Nondisplaced spinal fracture at the level of T6.

Rodas, 38, had no drugs or alcohol in his system at the time of the crash and his toxicology report came up clean.

Rodas also suffered multiple thermal and traumatic injuries, including a fractured skull, fractured jaw, fractured ribs, lung lacerations and contusions, pelvic fractures and charring of his entire body.

"There are no charges pending and there are no signs of foul play," the examination concludes.

Walker and Rodas were killed on Nov. 30 in Santa Clarita, Calif. after attending a charity event for their Reach Out Worldwide organization and taking the Porsche for a joyride, that ultimately ended in a fatal fiery crash.

Walker was in mid-production on Fast & Furious 7 when he tragically passed away, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, Universal will move forward with the movie and his character Brian O'Connor will not be killed off but instead "retired" in a tasteful manner.
