A hotel manager feared for Liam Payne’s life during a harrowing emergency call moments before the singer fell to his death 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.
