A hotel staffer had called 911 emergency moments before Liam Payne died after falling off his room balcony in a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The details of the call have now been made public, hours after the One Direction star died reportedly under the influence of alcohol and drugs. 

A frantic manager for the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires where Liam was staying, begged law enforcement and requested “urgent” assistance, alleging the out-of-control singer was “putting his life at risk”.

In the call, the manager did not name Liam but said a guest is 'drunk with drugs and alchohol' and 'breaking everything in the room.'

Sky News has shared a full transcript of the call. Read below:

Hours before his tragic death, Liam had reportedly posted a video on Snapchat saying, "a lovely day here in Argentina," as he showed his followers the surroundings. He also shared several pictures on Snapchat.

Liam formed the boy band One Direction in 2010 with Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan and Harry Styles, after they individually auditioned for the reality show The X Factor. After becoming one of the biggest pop groups in the world, the bandmembers went on an indefinite hiatus in 2016 and have since then pursued solo careers.
