The 22-year-old actor was reportedly shot by the State of Mexico police during a manhunt.

Carlos Jiménez, a reporter from the State of Mexico, assures that Octavio Ocaña had been drinking alcoholic beverages for two days and that he was armed. although the authorities are still working to clarify how the events happened, this is what it is known so far.

On the afternoon of Friday, October 29, local media reported on persecution on the Champa-Lechería highway. Municipal police followed three armed subjects aboard a gray Jeep that ended up crashing.

The circumstances in which the death occurred are unclear. It is speculated that the shooting was fired after the State of Mexico police ordered him to stop and he refused. However, there are also rumors that it could be an assault, a kidnapping, or an altercation.

It is also said that the 22-year-old was with two other men and that he was carrying a weapon, for which it is also presumed that it could have been activated by accident.

At the moment, the authorities have not made official statements.

The first reports claimed that the three subjects were injured, later it was confirmed that the driver had died at the scene and that the two companions were arrested.

So far, the authorities have not confirmed the death of Octavio Ocaña or the reasons why the incident originated.

Users on social networks have been given the task of investigating Ocaña’s social networks and shared that the truck that appears in the images of the murder is the same one that the actor shared on his social networks.

After the unfortunate news, actor Eduardo España, Ocaña’s partner in “Neighbors”, sent his condolences on his Twitter account.

“We are undone. I can’t sleep, I can’t stop crying and shaking. RIP Octavio Ocaña, our beloved Benito in Neighbors. My condolences to his parents and sisters. A big hug full of love. Thank you for so many laughs and for sharing your angel baby” he tweeted.

The photograph that has been shared the most is where Benito appears with torn and dirty clothes . This photo is part of a scene in the successful Televisa production , of which he was part since 2005. Here we tell you the story of this meme that returned the actor to Facebook and Twitter.

The story behind the poor Benito meme

The poor Benito meme emerged in chapter 18 of the first season of Neighbors. In that episode, the inhabitants of the apartments prepare for a costume party, then Jorjais, the homeless man who lives near the unit, suggests to the boy that he dress up as a beggar.

Benito accepts and dresses like  Jorjais. Then, being like his friend, he begins to ask for money from people who pass by on the street and when a woman is about to give him a coin, he responds “Of course, the rich man thinks that with a small coin he can buy the poor man.”

From this phrase, users began to popularize him and used his beggar image to make memes. In addition, many of the photos contain another scene where Octavio’s character appears well dressed, like a rich boy, since it must be remembered that Benito was forced to do various casting and wore different costumes.

Members of the cast of  Vecinos and other telenovelas in which Octavio Ocaña participated have expressed their condolences for the family and have said they were surprised by his death, of which there are still several unknowns.
