Alejandro "Jano" Fuentes was a contestant during Season 1 of "La Voz México." The singer is battling for his life after he was shot in the head multiple times in Chicago on Thursday night. NBC Chicago reports that Jano was in his car when a man walked up and ordered him to get out, when Fuentes refused the gunman shot him three times. The unidentified man fled the scene in a car that was a short distance away.

"It's so difficult. We love Jano. Everyone who knows him. We love him and everybody is concerned about it," said Anacelly Nava, Fuentes' friend, according to ABC7 Chicago. ""You can see inside a waiting room full of people who want to see him. He's a beautiful person, he's a loving person, and hopefully he stays with us."

Fuentes runs a school for young performers in the city of Chicago called Tras Bambalinas. He also participated on the Mexican version of "The Voice" where he was coached by Lucero. The Mexican singer has already reacted on social media writing the following: "I ask you for a prayer for Jano Fuentes my great friend, great artist that suffered an accident and is critical during these moments."


Miguel Sanchez, a close friend of Jano told NBC5: "We are feeling confused and we have no explanation why all these things are happening. We are very sad because it's something you don't expect to happen to your close friends." Although they don't know who did this Sanchez adds, "It wasn't random. This guy, they were waiting for him. They were waiting for him to come out of the school.”
