Train slams into double-decker bus in Mexico, killing at least 8 people and injuring dozens

A freight train slammed into a double-decker bus in Mexico early Monday, killing at least eight people and injuring 45, authorities said.

The crash took place in an industrial area of warehouses and factories in the town of Atlacomulco, about 80 miles northwest of Mexico City.

The state of Mexico's civil defense agency said via X that authorities were still working at the site of the crash.

The bus from the Herradura de Plata line was ripped apart by the collision. The company did not immediately respond to the Associated Press's request for comment.
