At a campaign rally for Mexican presidential candidate Jorge Alvarez Maynez, a giant screen and the stage roof collapsed, resulting in 9 deaths and 50 injuries, including a child. The disaster occurred during a rally in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo Leon. As the stage roof gave way, Maynez and his team were seen fleeing, with dozens trapped under the toppled screen. Maynez escaped uninjured, but some of his team members were hurt.
Authorities confirmed the death toll and injuries. In a social media statement, Maynez attributed the collapse to sudden, strong winds and announced the suspension of his campaign activities. He called for a transparent investigation into the incident.
