OMAN (CelebrityAccess) Avicii committed suicide with broken glass, according to two sources that spoke to TMZ.

Mulitple sources confirmed to TMZ that the DJ did take his life, which was alluded to in a statement from his parents last Thursday.

Sources said that it came from a shard of glass that caused massive bleeding. Two said Avicii broke a bottle and used the glass to inflict the fatal wound, with one source saying the glass came from a wine bottle.

One of the two sources told TMZ that the wound was to the neck; the other strongly denied it saying Avicii cut his wrist.

“He really struggled with thoughts about Meaning, Life, Happiness,” his parents had said in a statement. “He could not go on any longer. He wanted to find peace.”

Avicii was found dead in Oman April 20. The DJ, who had suffered from pancreatitis and had his appendix and gall bladder removed in 2014, had struggled with alcohol-related issues for years, and friends were concerned it could be life threatening.

Avicii quit touring altogether in 2016.
