The death toll from a gas truck explosion in Mexico City earlier this month has risen to 28, officials said. Nearly 20 people remain hospitalized with serious burn injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The blast occurred on September 10 in the Iztapalapa neighborhood after a truck carrying about 49,500 liters (13,070 gallons) of liquefied gas overturned, releasing a large cloud that ignited and set fire to vehicles and people nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authorities said Sunday that one more person had died of injuries, raising the total to 28. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the latest death, 18 people were still hospitalized and 39 had been released. In total, 94 people were initially reported injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time of the explosion, officials said<\/a> most of the victims were passengers in public buses and private vehicles, as well as vendors and delivery drivers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Witness videos showed a massive gas cloud spreading before it caught fire, engulfing buses and leaving many people with severe burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cause of the accident remains under investigation, though authorities have said speeding may have played a role.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
