Former boxing champion Hector "Macho" Camacho is clinging to life today after being shot in the face while sitting in a car Tuesday outside of San Juan, Puerto Rico. Another man in the driver's seat of the Ford Mustang, identified as Adrian Alberto Mojica Moreno, 49, of Toa Baja, died in the attack.
Police say at least one gunman opened fire on Camacho and Moreno from a passing vehicle. The bullet that struck Camacho in the jaw exited his head and lodged in his right shoulder, fracturing two vertebrae.
The 50-year old Camacho went into cardiac arrest around 4:15 a.m. this morning, but doctors at the trauma center in San Juan were able to revive him.
"He went into cardiac arrest. The doctors were able to get his heart started again with the medicine, and we are maintaining his blood pressure and pulse stable medically right now to see whether during this morning, afternoon or evening we see a positive change," Centro Medico director Dr. Ernesto Torres told reporters during a 7 a.m. media briefing this morning. "The situation with 'Macho' is very delicate. The prognosis is not good."

Former manager Ismael Leandry told The Associated Press that hospital officials were waiting on Camacho's mother to arrive from the U.S. mainland to decide whether or not to take him off of life support.
However, others remained optimistic.
"This guy is a cat with nine lives. He's been through so much," Camacho representative Steve Tannenbaum said. "If anybody can pull through it will be him."
ESPN is reporting that detective Alex Diaz said that Mojica Moreno had nine bags of cocaine in his possession with a 10th bag open in the Ford Mustang, which was registered to him.
Camacho had a boxing record of 79 wins and 6 losses, with 3 draws. He is a former WBC Super Featherweight Champion, a WBC Lightweight Champion and WBO Light Welterweight Champion.
**UPDATE** November 22
Fox News Latino is reporting that Hector Camacho has died from wounds suffered in a drive-by shooting Tuesday in Bayamon, near San Juan, Puerto Rico. Camacho was 50 years old.
The family is waiting for Hector's son - also named Hector Camacho - to arrive on the island in the coming hours from New York to remove the former boxing champion from an artificial respirator.
Camacho's father has requested that his son's organs be donated.

Big Sean decided there was no place better than home to shoot his new music video for "Guap." The Detroit player took over his city's Woodward Avenue to film the clip.
Zaakir Kareem, the video's assistant director told the Detroit Free Press that the video could air within the next couple of weeks.
Deelishis, from VH1's Flavor of Love, is expected to make a cameo appearance in the video. The Detroit native said she was happy to see Sean back home.
"It's amazing that Big Sean, an artist who is peaking right now, decided to do the video right here in Detroit," she said. "He could do this in Los Angeles, Brazil, wherever. But he wanted to do it right here with all of his friends and fans."
Jack Taylor of Division III Grinnell College had the kind of stat line you usually only see on video games. The 5-10, 170-pound guard shot the ball 108 times, making 52 of those. He was 27-of-71 from 3-point range, and 7-of-10 from the free-throw line. He finished the game with an incredible 138 points to lead his team to a 179-104 win Tuesday night against Faith Baptist Bible College.
No one else on Jack's team took more than 6 shots.
The 138 points broke the old NCAA record 113 points set by Clarence "Bevo" Francis who scored 113 points for Rio Grande College of Ohio vs. Hillside in 1954 according to USA Today.
Jack said he didn't realize what kind of night he was having until halftime.
"I thought I had around 30 points," Taylor said. "And (then) coach came in and said I had 58. That started to make me realize that it could be a special night."
NBA players took notice of the performance. Check out what some of them had to say:
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant: "Jack Taylor you deserve a shot of Jack Daniels after that performance lol...wow"
Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins: "I wanna knw who was guarding him!!!"
Retired forward Donyell Marshall: "This is crazy. Hope he iced his arms after game."
Atlanta Hawks forward Anthony Tolliver: "This dude now averages 61ppg after that #138pointsin1game performance hahaha"
Phoenix Suns point guard Kendall Marshall: "Hollllll up, kid on the other team was 34-44 and had 70. WAY more impressive!"
Former Sacramento Kings forward Donte Greene: "GIRL: how u do babe? BOY: had 70 but we lost GIRL: aw sorry wat happen? BOY: dude had 138 on da other team!! "
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard: "This guy scored 138 points? So the other team must have cheering him on. #nopride"
Golden State Warriors guard Charles Jenkins: "wouldn't be surprised if Jack Taylor transfer tomorrow lol .. thats crazy 138 points"
Thunder center Cole Aldrich: "138 points is impressive but I think shooting 108 times (71 3 pointers) is more impressive. #throwemup"
L.A. Lakers star Kobe Bryant joked that Jack must have been wearing his brand of sneakers.
"That's crazy. I don't care what level you're at, you score 138 points it's pretty insane," Bryant said. "He must have been wearing the Mambas, man. Only Mambas have no conscience to shoot the ball that much. You gotta be in shape. And you gotta have a little Mamba blood in you."
Check out coverage of Jack's historic night below.
