E! News has reached out to El Taiger’s rep for comment but has not yet heard back.
The heartbreaking update comes one week after the musician was found in the back of an SUV near Miami’s Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he was immediately brought to undergo treatment on Oct. 3.
The following day, a rep for El Taiger told E! News, “As of now, he is in a critical state. He has undergone surgery, and the medical team has placed him in an induced coma to facilitate the healing process of his brain and reduce inflammation.”
At the time, Miami Police Spokesperson Mike Vega told Telemundo 51 that law enforcement did not believe the crime took place in the city, adding, “We are certain it did not happen on that corner where the car was found. This happened somewhere else, someone drove it there, left it and left on foot.”
Authorities also, per Telemundo 51, found two gallons of gasoline in the SUV’s trunk. At that time, the outlet reported, citing authorities, that police were still investigating the motive of the shooting and had interviewed a person of interest.
