It became canon all of a sudden: Breaking Bad actor arrested for dousing a neighbor
Grandma's House.- Raymond Cruz, the actor who played "Tuco Salamanca" in Breaking Bad , has just been arrested for an altercation with his neighbor, and who knows why we suspect he never actually acted on the show.
The actor was reportedly arrested at his home in Los Angeles ( “the anjilis ,” according to monolingual gringos ) after having a fight with his neighbors, who may have tried to do something to his grandmother.
Maybe the actor wasn't "acting" after all...'Breaking Bad' star Raymond Cruz has been arrested for spraying neighbor with hose.
"Cruz was washing his car and asked the girl to move out of the way. When she didn't, she allegedly got sprayed and believed he did it on purpose."

Cruz, remembered for his role as “Tuco” in both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul , has appeared in several series and films, including Training Day , where he gave us a graphic image of what constipation looks like.
According to TMZ , "Tuco" was washing his car when his neighbor's daughter allegedly trespassed on his property. This allegedly brought out the "Salamanca" in him, and he ended up soaking the girl.
The outraged mother called the police, and Cruz was taken to a station to be processed for the crime.

It's unknown at this time whether the woman will file charges against the actor. In any case, he has already been released and could face trial on his own, as the charge is a misdemeanor. However, he will be advised to stay away from his home's sprinkler system... lest he lose control again.
Here's a recreation of how things went:
