Fuentes was celebrating his birthday there when he got into his car with friends and an armed man suddenly ordered Fuentes out of that vehicle and shot him.
Miguel Sanchez tells WLS-TV that his critically wounded friend is in a "big battle for his life."
Mount Sinai Hospital spokeswoman Dianne Hunter said Saturday Fuentes' family has asked that no information on his condition be released.
