At least nine killed in Mexican stage collapse
Officials in Mexico said at least nine people were killed and 50 others injured when a stage collapsed at a campaign event for the Citizens' Movement Party. The party's presidential candidate, Jorge Alvarez Maynez, said on social media that a gust of wind caused the stage to collapse at the event in the city of San Pedro Garza Garcia, a wealthy enclave near the industrial hub of Monterrey. Alvarez said he was "ok" after being taken to a local hospital, but that members of his team were hurt. (Agencies)_____________________________
