The vehicle crashed into a building that was unmanned at the time, preventing casualties on the ground. However, the collision with the aircraft’s cargo hold caused a fire, which was subsequently brought under control by firefighters deployed to the scene of the accident in the city of San Pedro Totolpec.
Given the threat to the health of residents caused by the presence of gas and fuel in the facilities, local authorities have ordered the evacuation of residents and set up a security perimeter.
