Bad Bunny’s historic run of shows in Puerto Rico just took a troubling turn. According to respected journalist Jay Fonseca, the international track icon was the target of a “credible death threat” during his residency on the island.
Fonseca, a former Telemundo reporter known for investigative reporting, shared that the threat surfaced online and came from an individual who was reportedly armed.
“The person who was allegedly making the threat was identified, and he was reportedly armed,” Fonseca revealed.
He also stated that federal and local authorities were involved during the shows.
Details surrounding the timeline of the threat and whether the suspect has been arrested remain unclear. Fonseca did not specify exactly when the threat was issued or how close the individual may have gotten to Bad Bunny during the performances. The creator wrapped up his 31-show residency on September 20th. His decision to perform in Puerto Rico rather than the U.S. mainland was previously influenced by political concerns.
“He feared ICE would target people who went to his concerts,” Fonseca noted, referencing Bad Bunny’s past comments on U.S. immigration policies during the Trump era.
While fans packed venues to celebrate Puerto Rico’s most famous musical export, few knew the level of security that was quietly unfolding behind the scenes.
