Buenos Aires, Argentina – The tragic death of former One Direction singer Liam Payne has shocked fans around the world. Video footage captured on CCTV shows the singer falling from a balcony after reportedly fainting. The footage, not released publicly, reveals the heartbreaking moment when Payne lost consciousness before the fatal fall.
Argentinian broadcast journalist, Paula Varela, shared details about the incident on a show broadcasted by Buenos Aires-based TV station Canal 13. She mentioned that if Payne had been closer to his bed, the outcome could have been different, emphasizing that it was not a deliberate act but rather a tragic accident.
Payne’s last moments were recorded on a social media selfie video taken in Sarmiento, Buenos Aires province, presumed to be the final video of him alive. Reports suggest that Payne, along with his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, was in Argentina for a vacation before the unfortunate incident occurred.
The investigation into Payne’s death includes looking into a hotel worker believed to have had a significant relationship with the singer. Authorities suspect this worker of potentially supplying drugs to Payne, which may have contributed to his passing.
A toxicology report from the autopsy revealed the presence of various substances in Payne’s system, including pink cocaine. Additionally, police found drug paraphernalia in his suite. The post mortem confirmed that the singer died instantly from multiple injuries sustained from the fall.
Prosecutors believe Payne was in a state of semi or total unconsciousness due to a substance-induced ‘psychotic episode’ at the time of the accident. Alberto Crescenti, chief of the state emergency medical system, confirmed the tragic event, describing the injuries Payne suffered as incompatible with life.
The investigation into Payne’s death continues, with authorities keeping certain details and footage confidential as they piece together the events leading up to the singer’s fatal fall. The loss of Liam Payne has left fans and loved ones mourning the untimely passing of the talented artist.
