Liam Payne had multiple drugs in his system at the time of his death: report

Troubled former One Direction singer Liam Payne had a toxic cocktail of drugs in his body at the time of his balcony death last week in Argentina – including crack cocaine and so-called “pink cocaine”, according to a new report.

The 31-year-old died immediately from severe internal and external injuries when he fell fatally. At the time, experts told the Post that the singer appeared to be unconscious as he fell into the hotel courtyard below.

ABC News reported Monday that in addition to pink cocaine – a combination of methamphetamine, ketamine and ecstasy – drugs detected in his bloodstream through toxicology test results also included benzodiazepines, crack cocaine and cocaine.
