Alberto Crescenti, a city ambulance service provider spokesman, stated that Liam had fallen 40 meters and suffered ‘severe injuries which were incompatible with life.’

‘The alarm was raised at 5:04pm local time saying a person was lying in an internal patio at Casa Sur. At 5:11pm an ambulance arrived and the man was certified dead.’

He added: ‘Afterwards we found out he had been a famous singer. Unfortunately the injuries he had suffered as a result of the fall proved to be fatal. There was no possibility of resuscitating him.’
