Details of the sudden and tragic passing of former One Direction singer Liam Payne have emerged. However, before we begin, we will not be showing the photographs of his dead body here.
The Lowdown
According to officials, Payne died after he plunged from the 3rd-floor balcony of his hotel at the Casa Sur Palermo in Buenos Aries Argentina. After he plunged, onlookers took photographs of his lifeless body that later were turned over to TMZ.
It got problematic from there. Before officials could release a preliminary autopsy report, TMZ’s report had gone viral and sparked backlash.
His autopsy report revealed he died of trauma, internal and external bleeding. Police do believe that he had narcotics in his hotel room at the time of his death. His approximate time of death was yesterday shortly after 5:07 pm Argentina time.
Cause of death revealed
According to La Nacion Payne died almost immediately after plunging. He suffered an almost instant fractured skull among several other horrific injuries. It is being investigated after alleged images of drugs and other items surfaced reportedly claiming to have been from inside of Payne’s hotel room.
