About the death of Liam Payne

Liam fell to his death from a hotel balcony. The singer’s last hours at the Hotel Casa Sur in Palermo, Buenos Aires, remain unclear, as Argentine prosecutors say he appeared to have consumed drugs and alcohol to excess. Prosecutors cited investigators who found his hotel room a mess with what appeared to be narcotics and alcohol scattered across broken objects and furniture.

It is still unclear whether he jumped intentionally or accidentally fell from the third floor. An autopsy carried out a few hours after his death showed that he died from diving, which caused “multiple trauma” and “internal and external bleeding” to the skull, chest, abdomen and limbs. Results of toxicology reports are pending.
