British singer Liam Payne, of the group One Direction, died on Wednesday at the age of 31. Police initially reported that Liam Payne had “fallen from the third floor” of a hotel in Bueno Aires.
But now we learn that the singer “jumped from the balcony of his room”, Pablo Policicchio, communications director for the Buenos Aires Ministry of Security, told the Associated Press. It would appear that the man was aggressive.
A transcript of the 911 call was also released. The hotel explains that there is “a guest overwhelmed with drugs and alcohol... He's destroying the entire room and, well, we need you to send someone, please.”
Emergency chief Alberto Crescenti reported that Liam Payne had “very serious injuries following his fall.”
