MEXICO CITY, Mexico (CNN) -- A truck carrying more than 25 tons of dynamite exploded Monday in northern Mexico, killing at least 23 people and injuring more than 140, a government spokesman said.

Of the 140 injured, 30 suffered critical wounds and five were listed in extremely critical condition, said David Aguisn, spokesman for Humberto Moreira, the governor of the state of Coahuila.

Notimax, Mexico's official news agency, reported at least 30 people were killed in the blast at a factory near Monclova -- about 125 miles (200 kilometers) northwest of Monterrey.

Three Mexican reporters were among those killed, according to Notimax.



Video footage showed the burned-out, mangled shell of the truck and nearby cars damaged by the blast.

Aguisn said that there is no indication of foul play. The cause of the explosion is under investigation

and so it begins folks......open borders......limited inspections if any...

Sorry if ya'll don't agree, but I'm waiting for those Mexican truckers & they are getting the finger from me. That DENSE Bush wants to keep the borders SECURE, MY @ss!!! Who sez these truckers can't be bringing in terrorists??? This country has gone to hell!!!

I'm an ignorant, sorry about that, but i quit don't follow the news report with the topic of the thread.

Yep, country has gone to hell.

I guess that before making such an statement of mexican truckers are bringing terrorists through the border we need to educate ourselves a little bit better.
It's just a matter of reading the newspapers.
WHat is the tendancy? what is the profile of these so called terrorists?
if we are going to attack mexicans we need to be more specific and not just simply paranoic.
Even though i think it's an absolutely non-sense as well, but if we are to discriminate against mexicans let's say just that they are taking the precious North American jobs.
Let's not just freak out.
