As the reality of Liam Payne’s death sets in, his family, friends and former One Direction bandmates are still trying to make sense of the devastating loss while authorities press forward in their investigation into the circumstances surrounding Payne’s final moments and fatal fall.

Payne died Wednesday after falling from the third floor of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was 31.

His death remains under investigation Friday by local authorities, who are working to determine the nature of Payne’s fall as more details begin to emerge.

The public prosecutor’s office in Argentina said Thursday that “everything indicates that the musician was alone when the fall occurred.” The prosecutor’s office also suspects Payne, who was previously open about his struggle with addiction and his mental health, was potentially “experiencing some kind of episode due to substance abuse” at the time.

A picture released by police in Buenos Aires Wednesday shows a table in Payne’s hotel room with items scattered across it, including unidentified white powder, crumpled tinfoil and a lighter. Some charred marks are also visible on the table.

They also suspect he may not have been fully conscious at the time of his fall. “Due to the position in which the body was found and the injuries from the fall, it is presumed that Payne did not adopt a reflexive posture to protect himself and may have fallen in a state of semi or total unconsciousness,’” the report read.

Marcelo Roma, the prosecutor in charge of the investigation, confirmed the preliminary autopsy report determined Payne’s death was due to multiple serious injuries and “internal and external hemorrhage” as a result of the fall.

Six people believed to have witnessed Payne in the hours before he died spoke with local police in Buenos Aires on Thursday, as part of the investigation into the singer’s death.

Two women, the musician’s manager, and three hotel employees gave testimony to the city police, authorities told CNN on Friday, as investigators work with the Prosecutor’s Office to reconstruct the events. The women who testified were with the British singer in his hotel room but had already left when his death occurred, according to the Prosecutor’s Office.

The results of the toxicological tests to determine if Payne was under the influence of alcohol or other substances at the time his death are still pending.

On Wednesday, Buenos Aires police initially responded to the hotel after a staffer requested urgent police assistance via a 911 call to help with a hotel guest who was “overwhelmed with drugs and alcohol” and whose life they feared was “at risk,” according to the emergency call obtained by CNN’s local affiliate Todo Noticias.

A report later released by the public prosecutor’s office stated that a series of substances were seized from Payne’s room that might “indicate a prior situation of alcohol and drug consumption.”

Whether Payne jumped from the balcony of his room or accidentally fell remains unclear.

Buenos Aires police previously told The Associated Press in a statement that they believe the former, but did not elaborate on how that conclusion was reached and referred CNN to the prosecutor’s office for more information.
