Liam Payne's father reads tributes outside hotel

The father of former One Direction member Liam Payne has visited tributes laid out by fans outside the hotel where his son died on Wednesday.

Geoff Payne read letters and messages left by fans and paused next to flowers, photographs and candles placed around a tree near the hotel. He also thanked fans for the tributes before leaving.

As he arrived, fans created a wall with their bodies to block the paparazzi from getting too close to him.

Liam died at the age of 31 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, after falling from a hotel balcony.

The BBC's Ione Wells reports from the scene.
