A reggaeton singer continued the fight for his life as those closest to him held a vigil for his recovery. The event came after Cuban reggaeton singer El Taiger was found with a gunshot wound to the head Thursday morning in the back of a black Mercedes.  The vigil took place at 11 p.m. Friday at Northwest 17th Street and 9th Avenue, the same area the reggaeton artist was found by police. Dozens of friends and fans brought light to the spot that carried so much pain.  “It’s very criminal that he was basically a block away from the hospital,” said Izzy Vera, a fan who attended the vigil. “And inhumane, honestly. We’re here to support. To give out good vibes.” Officers would arrive to find El Taiger, whose real name is Jose Manuel Carbajal Zaldívar, unconscious with a gunshot wound to his head. Police are investigating if his injury was self-inflicted or if foul play was involved. “We’re not ruling any situation out at this time,” said Miami Police Department Chief Manny Morales. Though he remains in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital, the singer’s management team said he’s a man who loves life, believing wholeheartedly in his ability to pull through.  “He is in stable but critical condition; he’s not dead like they’re saying on social media,” said manager Teresa Padry. “His vitals are doing well; he’s good. He’s good. He’s good. And I truly in my heart believe he’s going to make it.” His fans are hoping and praying for that same thing.  “Get well soon. Very speedy recovery, to the point that he gets out of there the man that he was,” said Izzy. If anyone has information as to what took place inside the car, you are urged to contact Miami Police at 305-603-6640.
