Reported suicide - where would the person be buried

hello. Im researching James Roberts (b. 1841 Maltby, d 2/5/1903 Doncaster street, sheffield) who unfortunately committed suicide in May 1903 as reported in the sheffield telegraph. I have been unable to find a record of his burial in sheffield. Would his cause of death have led to an unmarked grave ? If anyone can help me find a burial record i would be grateful for any suggestions. Kind regards, Luan.

James Roberts, Doncaster St age 62 was buried at Sheffield, St Philip 7th May 1903.
There's no indication of anything untoward in the burial register.
