— -- The cause of death for "Glee" actress Becca Tobin's boyfriend Matt Bendik is pending after an autopsy did not immediately establish a clear cause of death, a preliminary from the autopsy concluded.

Bendik, 31, was found dead in his Philadelphia hotel room at Hotel Monaco on Thursday afternoon and his death "does not appear suspicious," local authorities said. There were no drugs in the room at the time, according to the report.

Jeff Moran, a spokesman for the Philadelphia Health Department, told ABC News that there was "no evidence of trauma" and "as is the usual procedure in evaluating a sudden, unexpected death, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner we will be conducting additional studies."

Philadelphia Police couldn't comment on the whereabouts of Bendik's girlfriend Tobin, who played Kitty Wilde on "Glee."

TMZ was the first to break the news.

Fox, the network for "Glee," had no comment about Bendik's death.
