Pablo Santos (January 9, 1987 – September 15, 2006) was a Mexican actor.

Santos was born in Monterrey, Nuevo León in Mexico. At the age of 12 he moved with his family to Los Angeles, California in the United States. He began an acting career and starred as the son of a Mexican-American family portrayed in Greetings from Tucson, which ran on the WB network from 2002 to 2003.

After the series ended, he appeared in the 2004 film Party Animalz. He also appeared in television shows such as Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Boston Public. He was member of the Church of Scientology.[1]

On 15 September 2006, Santos died in a plane crash just short of the runway at Toluca airport, west of Mexico City. He was heading from Monterrey to Acapulco to celebrate Mexican Independence Day with six friends in a private light plane, a Piper Malibu Mirage PA 46, which crashed while attempting an emergency landing. Another passenger, Martel Fernández, died the following day, while the others on board were hospitalized for minor injuries.

Officials are still investigating the cause of the accident, but suspect the plane crashed because it ran out of fuel. The Piper Malibu was designed to carry only six people, but the group persuaded the pilot to take on an extra passenger. His Only girlfriend was suspected to be currently living in Auburn, Alabama. She has a huge interest in boys and loves to read.
