In the middle of a political act a bridge falls in Cuernavaca Mexico
It was being reopened by the mayor of the city
In a video that went viral on the internet, you can see how the Mexican authorities fall when a suspension bridge detaches, which was being reopened to serve as a tourist passage in Cuernavaca.
In the middle of the event, 25 people were injured, including Mayor José Luis Uriostegui and his wife Luz María Zagal.
According to the statements, the work could have failed due to the lack of maintenance of the chains that supported it. This work was being rehabilitated, to specify a passage with a rustic touch, with a depth of 20 meters, which was going to be part of the Cuernavaca Riverwalk.
The paramedical personnel of the Red Cross attended the incident and pointed out that at no time was the life of the victims at risk, but some were classified as a priority to enter the hospital registry.
