A tourist from New York was killed while visiting Puerto Rico for a Bad Bunny concert, according to police.

25-year-old Kevin Mares was shot in the left side of his abdomen early Sunday morning in the La Perla area of San Juan, Puerto Rico, which has a history of violence. The shooting took place in the early morning hours on Sunday at a night hangout spot called “Refuge for Mistreated Men” in the coastal community.

Several people who were near Mares got into an argument, resulting in one person pulling out a gun and shooting at least three others, which included the New Yorker. Mares was taken to a local hospital but died, homicide detective Sgt. Arnaldo Ruiz said.

Two other people, a brother and sister in their mid-40s, remain in the hospital.

Ruiz said Mares was in San Juan to see Bad Bunny perform in concert, where his 30-show residency recently began.

Officials don’t have many details from the shooting and don’t yet have a description of the suspect.

“We have very little information,” Ruiz said.

La Perla was once known as a major distribution hub for heroin, which brought high rates of violence to the area. In 2011, federal agents raided the shantytown and made dozens of arrests.

A GoFundMe raising money for Mares’ funeral describes him as a “deeply loved son, devoted friend, and a source of inspiration to everyone who knew him.”

“His wholehearted kindness, adventurous spirit, and unwavering commitment to family made him a pillar of strength for his loved ones. Kevin had a bright future ahead, with plans to propose to his girlfriend of six years this fall, and he was always creating memories with those closest to him,” Mares said. “Family was at the center of everything he did, and his sudden passing has left an unfillable void in our lives.”
