On Location: May 4, 2021 UP NEXT At least 23 people were killed and dozens more were injured after an overpass for the Mexico City Metro collapsed on Monday night, sending a subway car full of passengers plunging toward a bustling boulevard below. The collapse occurred at around 10:30 p.m. local time on Line 12, the newest of Mexico City s subway lines, which runs underground through more central areas of Mexico s densely populated capital but then emerges onto elevated structures along the outskirts. A support beam gave way just as the train passed over it in the southern borough of Tlahuac, according to Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum.
