What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
However, the Angel of God went out and struck down in the Assyrian camp 185,000 men; and when they arose in the morning, behold, all the dead bodies. Then Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and returned to Nineveh, and he lived there. And it came about as he was worshiping in the temple of Nesrach his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer, his sons, killed him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son became king in his place. …
Thomas Aquinas
Here he sets out the punishment which Sennacherib sustained from God. First, as to the slaughter of his army: and slew, above: at the voice of the angel the people fled (Isa 33:3).
