The former One Direction singer tragically died after falling from the third floor of his hotel in Buenos Aires last month.

Witnesses said the fall happened around 5 pm local time, shortly after Liam was spotted "acting erratic" in the hotel lobby — smashing his laptop and getting carried back to his room.

Police had previously been called to the hotel due to an "aggressive man who may have been under the effects of drugs and alcohol".

City ambulance spokesperson Alberto Crescenti told the media: "The injuries (Liam) had suffered as a result of the fall proved to be fatal. There was no possibility of resurrecting him."

Liam Payne was in a long-term relationship with US actress Kate Cassidy at the time of his shock death in Argentina.

Recent reports state that Argentinian authorities raided the hotel where Liam stayed, looking for information on suspected drug dealing among the staff.

Prosecutors believe Liam was in a "state of semi or total unconsciousness" due to substance use at the time of the incident.

Tributes poured in from around the world for Liam, with plans for his funeral to be held at St Paul's Cathedral in Wolverhampton upon his return to the U.K.
