An Oasis fan who fell to his death at Wembley Stadium was the victim of a “tragic accident”, a pre-inquest review has heard.
Bournemouth man Lee Claydon, 45, died following the incident at the London venue on 2 August.
Detective Sergeant James Raffin, from the Met Police, said there were “no concerns” from Mr Claydon’s toxicology report.
He also said that while Mr Claydon had drunk alcohol, this was “expected” and “normal for any of the people attending” the Oasis gig.
The force had also ruled out the possibility of suicide, he said.
He told Barnet Coroner’s Court the police had now completed their investigation into his death
He said: “From a police point of view, this is no longer a criminal prosecution.
“We do not suspect any third party involvement.
“This, from everything we have seen, was a tragic accident.
“From a police point of view, I would say our investigation is complete.”

DS Raffin said he was aware the family had concerns over the “circumstances on the night”, and said he would pass these on to officials at Brent Council.
The deceased’s father, Clive Claydon, 75, previously raised questions about barriers at the venue.
“It must have been horrific,” he said in August.
“All I know is there was beer everywhere, it’s slippery, he slipped apparently, we do not know the rest of it, there’s questions about the barriers.”
Brent Council will now review the police report.

Mr Claydon, a landscape gardener, fell during a gig that formed part of Oasis’ sell-out Live ’25 reunion tour – their first since splitting in 2009.
The inquest opening, which took place in September, heard that the father-of-three was taken to a medical centre in Wembley after the fall, where he was pronounced dead at 10.38pm.
A post-mortem examination on 6 August gave his preliminary medical cause of death as “multiple bodily injuries”.
Senior Coroner Andrew Walker told the review hearing the full inquest will take place on 26 February next year.
He said: “It looks like we are going to be in a position next February to have reports from the London Borough of Brent over the circumstances and also we will have by then the police investigation report.”
Oasis previously said in a statement: “We are shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of a fan at the show.
“Oasis would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved.”
In a statement at the time of the fall, a Wembley spokesperson said: “The stadium operates to a very high health and safety standard, fully meeting legal requirements for the safety of spectators and staff, and is certified to and compliant with the ISO 45001 standard.
“We work very closely and collaboratively with all relevant event delivery stakeholders – including event owners, local authorities, the Sports Grounds Safety Authority and the police – to deliver events to high standards of safety, security and service for everyone attending or working in the venue.”
