Mendoza is known for voicing Gohan in the Latin American Spanish dub of Dragon Ball Z, as well as for playing Looney Tunes character Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck.
Cartoon news site Cartoon Brew reported on Sunday that voice actor Luis Alfonso Mendoza was killed in the neighborhood of Portales Norte in Mexico City on Saturday afternoon.
Mendoza’s other roles in Spanish-dubbed anime include Dr. Kohsaku Tokita in Paprika, Albert Heinrich in Cyborg 009 The Cyborg Soldier, Dr. Dee in Mary and The Witch’s Flower, and Kon in Bleach.
The assailant then reportedly shot himself in the head in a suicide attempt, but he remains alive in “serious condition.”
