Mexico City Metro System Overpass Collapses, Killing at Least 15 People

Rescuers work in Mexico City at a site where an metro system overpass collapsed on Monday night.MEXICO CITY—An overpass in Mexico City’s metro system collapsed Monday night, sending a train plunging toward a road, trapping at least one car under rubble and killing at least 15 people, authorities said.

Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum said 70 people were injured, with 34 hospitalized, according to early figures. Video showed at least one broken train partially suspended and a car trapped under rubble, with dozens of rescuers searching through wreckage. The overpass was more than 16 feet above the road in southern Mexico City.

“A support beam gave way,” Ms. Sheinbaum said, adding that the beam collapsed just as the train passed over it. Rescue efforts were briefly interrupted at midnight because the partially hanging train was “very weak” and a crane had to be brought in. There were still people trapped inside the train, though “we don’t know if they are alive,” said Ms. Sheinbaum.
