A 51-year-old man died early September 4 while being transported for medical treatment from Burning Man, the annual arts and music festival held in Nevada’s desert, local outlet News 4 reported.

The victim was identified as Armando Ramírez, a California resident. The cause and circumstances of his death remain pending further testing, although medical examiners found no indication of a violent death.

Two other participants had previously died during this year’s festival. A 60-year-old man was found dead at his camp, while another participant, believed to be around 55, died after suffering a medical emergency.
