An elevated section of the Mexico City metro collapsed and sent a subway car plunging toward a busy street this afternoon (late Monday local time), killing at least 20 people and injuring about 70, city officials say.
A crane was working to hold up one subway car left dangling on the collapsed section so that emergency workers could enter to check the car to see if anyone was still trapped.
