Thirty-seven people were killed when a truck loaded with explosives crashed into another truck in an accident in northern Mexico, Mexican media reported on Monday.
About 150 people were injured by the blast, which left a crater of up to 20m in diameter in the road in the northern state of Coahuila, the El Universal daily said on its website, quoting police.
Most of the dead were people who had rushed to the scene of the crash and the truck then exploded, the paper said.
Coahuila is a mining state where explosives are used in the coal industry. — Reuters
