Former One Direction singer Liam Payne had multiple drugs including crack cocaine and methamphetamine in his system when he fell to his death from a hotel balcony in Argentina, according to anonymous Argentinian sources familiar with the initial toxicology reports.
The British singer and former One Direction member died last week at the age of 31 after plunging from a third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires.
ABC News and TMZ reported that a cocktail of drugs called “pink cocaine” – containing methamphetamine, ketamine and MDMA – had been found during a partial autopsy, along with crack cocaine and benzodiazepine. Both outlets cited anonymous sources familiar with the preliminary tests.
Associated Press reported an anonymous official had said the preliminary toxicology report suggested evidence of exposure to cocaine, but stressing that these initial results don’t offer an accurate reading of just how much was circulating in his blood when he died.
The final toxicology results are not expected to be made public for some weeks. (Foreign agencies)
