During a terrifying 911 call just before the singer's murder, the hotel manager worried for Liam Payne's life.

A hotel manager feared for Liam Payne’s life during a harrowing emergency call moments before the singer fell to his death in Buenos Aires on Wednesday.
In a newly released audio obtained by Argentinian outlet La Nacion, the employee who identified himself as Esteban told an emergency operator that his first call had gotten disconnected but was calling from “the CasaSur hotel in Palermo, Costa Rica 6032.”
“We have a guest who is [allegedly] high and drunk; and when he is conscious, he is destroying his room and we need you to send someone, please. We need you to send someone urgently because I don’t know if his life is in danger,” he begged in the audio translated from Spanish.
“He is in a room that has a balcony and we are scared he might be endangering his life.”
The manager then confirmed that Payne had only been a guest at the hotel for “two or three days.”

As the operator asked further questions, the manager asked if the police would also come. However, the manager then hesitated before asking for only the “SAME,” which is Argentina’s system for medical emergencies, to come.
It can be understood that it was at that moment that employees heard a noise and discovered Payne’s body in the courtyard.
On Wednesday, news broke that the former One Direction band member had died after he fell from his third-floor hotel room balcony. He was 31.
Although an autopsy report has yet to be released, Buenos Aires police said in a statement the singer’s fall resulted in “extremely serious injuries” with medics confirming his death on the spot.
Alberto Crescenti, head of the state emergency medical system, explained on Argentina’s Todo Noticias TV channel that Payne fell 13 or 14 meters and “suffered severe injuries that provoked his immediate death.”
“We arrived in time to try and revive him, but there was nothing we could do,” Crescenti added.
