QUOTEMEXICO CITY (Hollywood Reporter) - Mexican television actor Edgar Ponce died Thursday after a car plowed into a motorcycle he was riding during the unauthorized filming of an advertisement.

Ponce, who has appeared on numerous telenovelas, died early Thursday morning in a Mexico City hospital; three other actors, also riding motorcycles at the time, sustained injuries. The accident occurred during the filming of an advertisement for \"Solo Para Mujeres\" (For Women Only), a live male striptease show. The ad was to air on Televisa variety show \"No Manches.\"

According to a statement released from the Mexico City police department, the shoot took place on a main artery in southern Mexico City. The police report said a speeding vehicle slammed into a caravan of moving motorcycles used for the plug. Producer Sergio Mayer \"did not request police assistance\" for the filming, the department said.

A spokesman at Mexico City's attorney general's office said the driver had alcohol on his breath yet it still hasn't been determined if he had passed the legal limit. He added that the driver and the producer could be held responsible for the actor's death.

Mayer acknowledged at a Thursday press conference that he did not have permission to film and said that Televisa had nothing to do with the production. Televisa declined comment.

damm...did I just see a foot sticking out of the engine?... :earl:

Holy crap....that would suck.

I just had a co-worker die from a motorcycle accident. They can be really dangerous

Dayum! That asshole never even slowed down! I ride and seeing that made me real nervous for some reason.

People are so oblivious sometimes. A friend just got a DUI last night. He doesn't even seem like it matters. Do the idiots think about who they could hurt?

I know one thing, if somebody ran my crew down, that SOB driving that car would have gotten his ass beat to sleep... Better yet, I would have personally hung him up by his balls... That night, he would have went to sleep with his cock on one side and his balls on the other...
