Buenos Aires, Argentina — As Argentine authorities investigated the death of ex-One Direction singer Liam Payne, who grappled with the pressures of global stardom while still a teenager, prosecutors on Thursday described the circumstances surrounding his three-story fall as suspicious, given possible drug involvement.

Former One Direction member Liam Payne died after jumping from a hotel balcony in Argentina, the Associated Press reported. The 31-year-old, who rose to fame as part of the chart-topping British boy band One Direction, was found dead Wednesday, Oct. 16. after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, local officials said.

The hotel in Argentina where One Direction star Liam Payne fell to his death Wednesday night called 911 about his destructive behavior after he had "overindulged on drugs and alcohol," according to a transcript of the call.
