Thursday, October 17, 2024 - One Direction star Liam Payne left hotel staff concerned his "life could be at risk" in a tragic 911 call before his de@th.
Liam Payne d!ed at the age of 31 at a
Buenos Aires hotel on Wednesday evening, October 16 after falling from a
balcony.
And in a desperate call to emergency
services before his de@th, the hotel receptionist shared his concern for the
star.
A recording of the 911 call was
published by local media in Argentina.
In it, the hotel worker, identified
as Esteban, says: "We have a guest who is off his head on drugs and
alcohol.
"And well, he is conscious, he
is destroying everything in the room. And well, we need you to send someone,
please."
He goes on: "We need you to send someone urgently because, well, I don't know if the guest's life is in danger. They must be in a room that has a balcony.
"And well, we're a little bit
worried he'll do something, that he'll put his life at risk."
The worker tells the line operator
that Liam had been staying there "two or three days" and that they
couldn't get into his room.
Tragically, when police arrived, Liam
was found de@d after falling from his balcony. He had been staying at Hotel
CasaSur in Palermo.
US publication were told by a local
ambulance manager: "At 17.04 through the 911 integrated public safety
system, we were alerted of a person who was in an internal courtyard of the
management of a south house hotel. At 17.11 a same team arrived and verified
the de@th of this man and later we found out that he was a singer in a musical
group.
"Unfortunately,
he had injuries that were incompatible with life, as a result of his fall, so
we had to confirm his death, there was no possibility of
resuscitation."
Liam had reportedly been "behaving erratically" in the hotel earlier in the day. He had reportedly smashed his laptop and had to be carried back up to his room.
