A singer who appeared on “The Voice” was shot and killed right after his birthday party, according to reports.
Alejandro “Jano” Fuentes, 45, appeared on a Mexican version of the popular TV talent show. He was shot and killed on Thursday, June 16, in an apparent ambush after he left his party at his performance arts school and studio in Chicago, NBC Chicago reported.
He was pronounced dead at 2:07 p.m., the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office said on Saturday.
He was in a vehicle with a passenger when a man came up to him with a gun and ordered him out of the car. Fuentes resisted and the gunman shot him several times in the head, critically wounding him.
The singer was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital for treatment. The gunmen fled on foot before he got into a car nearby, NBC Chicago said.
