Liam James Payne, composer and guitarist, former member of the band One Direction, died today after falling from the third floor of a hotel in Palermo.
Alberto Crescenti, head of the state emergency medical system, said authorities were investigating the circumstances of his death and conducting an autopsy, declining to discuss whether it was an accident or a jump.
Local health officials reported that Mr. Payne fell close to 40m and his injuries were deemed "incompatible with life." Ambulance workers confirmed his death on the spot.
Liam and his partner Kate Cassidy had travelled to Argentina to attend a show of former bandmate Niall Horan on Oct 2, and he had been seen recently enjoying life.
