Van accident kills 12 people in Mexico, sparks forest fire

Published on March 24, 2025 at 09:58 AM

At least 12 people died and another four were injured in northern Mexico on Sunday after a van crashed into a ravine and caught fire, sparking a blaze in the surrounding forest.

The accident was said to have occurred in the northern state of Nuevo Leon, which borders the U.S., a short drive away from Monterrey, the state's capital.

In a short video message, the mayor of the municipality of Santiago, David de la PeÃ±a, said the accident appeared to have been caused by a mechanical failure in the vehicle.

The van, which fell nearly 120 meters (394 feet) into the ravine, was reportedly carrying about 16 people.

At the time of filing this report, there was no immediate information on where the passengers were from or whether the number of people included the driver.

While some of the accident victims died at the scene, others were taken to the hospital, where they later died.

According to images shared by authorities, smoke was seen rising from a dry forest where the fire had spread rapidly, with a helicopter working to extinguish the flames.

The accident is said to be the latest in a series of road accidents with high death tolls.

It could be recalled that earlier this month, eleven people died in southern Mexico after a bus flipped over.

Last month, 41 people also died in southern Mexico after a bus collided with a truck. Additionally, late last year, 19 people died in a bus crash in central Mexico.
