Estefano, the acclaimed Colombian songwriter known for his collaborations with artists such as Gloria Estefan, Marc Anthony and Thalia, among others, was shot last Friday at his own home, presumably in a planned hit. EFE reports today that the artist remains in stable but critical condition:

The songwriter is in Intensive Care at Jackson Memorial Hospital [Miami] and, according to physicians, his life is not in danger, unless unexpected complications arise. A spokesperson for the police said that they are investigating under what circumstances the shooting, which occurred at the mansion of the producer in the exclusive Venetian Causeway area, took place.

Estefano was reportedly shot in the chest and the head by his handyman, Francisco Oliveira, who was delivering marijuana to the songwriter. Oliveira has since been arrested.
