No he didn't. Crassus's son Publius committed suicide, but Crassus was killed in a skirmish while trying to negotiate a truce with the Parthians. One legend has it that the Parthians captured him and poured molten gold down his throat. Stories vary as to whether this was done after his death or as the cause of his death.
