Veteran urban artist Zion hospitalized in "reserved" condition after vehicle accident in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rican reggaeton star Zion remains under medical care in Puerto Rico following a serious accident, his team confirmed in a public statement on October 7, 2025. The statement, shared via Instagram, said that "his medical condition continues to be reserved," urging fans and media to await further updates from his medical team.

Reports from local outlets such as El Nuevo Día place the artist at the Trauma Unit of Centro Médico in Río Piedras, where he was transferred overnight. Zion reportedly arrived after being moved from Hospital Menonita in Ponce. According to Dr. Israel Ayala, director of ASEM (Puerto Rico's medical services administration), the singer is facing "multiple traumas of care," and his treatment plan is still under evaluation. Surgical intervention has not been ruled out.

The announcement from Zion's management (Baby Records Inc / NuForm Management) stressed that only official statements will be used to report on his health. They thanked fans for prayers and support, and asked for patience and respect, emphasizing that behind the artist is a family and team wholly focused on his recovery.

Zion's condition is being kept intentionally vague. No details have been published about the exact nature of his injuries, the type of vehicle involved, or the timing and location of the crash. Some media outlets speculate it may have involved an off‑road or all‑terrain vehicle (a "cuatrimoto"), but these reports remain unconfirmed.

The timing of the accident is particularly striking: in September, Zion had released The Perfect Melody II – Chapter I, marking a return to solo work after years of his identity as part of Zion & Lennox. He also went to Bad Bunny's residence with Lennox.

Earlier in October, he appeared in Colombia at the Atanasio Girardot Stadium, sharing the stage with singer Silvestre Dangond.

Zion's career spans over two decades, often anchored by his partnership with Lennox. The duo officially announced their separation in 2024 to pursue individual projects—Zion's release is part of that solo trajectory.

As of now, no official statement confirms his prognosis or recovery timeline. Fans, friends, and fellow artists alike have launched prayer campaigns and sent messages of hope. The music community remains on alert for any official health update.

Given the uncertainties, reputable media, including Puerto Rican outlets, continue to monitor developments. Zion's team reiterates that any substantive news will come only via official channels.
