Former "One Direction" singer Liam Payne, 31, was found dead after a fall from a 3rd floor balcony at a hotel in Buenos Aires on Wednesday.

"He had checked into this CasaSur hotel a couple days ago, he had been on vacation in Argentina with his girlfriend, but for whatever reason she left the country and he stayed behind. There are conflicting reports about what happened. Apparently, he was in the lobby acting erratically and he smashed a laptop. And I’ve seen reports saying that he had to be carried back to his room," said music commentator and the host of "The Ongoing History of New Music" Alan Cross.

Hotel staff made a 911 call to police to report the behaviour and said they were "concerned about this guest and they were especially concerned that he was on the third floor with a balcony and they were concerned about what might happen," Cross added.

Police said in a statement they had been called to the hotel after being notified of an "aggressive man who could be under the effects of drugs and alcohol."

When they arrived, the hotel manager reported he had heard a loud noise from the inner courtyard and the police found that a man had fallen from the balcony of his room, the statement said.
