Narrative:
In flight during the initial descent I heard a bang sound from the rear and felt a shake. After that engine 2 indication oil pressure; N1; itt etc.; were dropping. The captain was flying the airplane and I was on the radios and conducted QRH. We [notified ATC]. It happened about FL240 - FL220 when engine went out. We had no issue with the pressurization because we were at a lower altitude. We continued the descent; and about 11000 feet or so went into icing condition and because we were close to our destination requested ATC to give us lower to get out of icing conditions. We properly conducted all checklist and landed safely and were able to taxi to the gate without any aid. After maintenance checked the engine we were told compressor section was busted and torn.
