Deadly Blast Hits Mexican Resort

An explosion at a luxury hotel on Mexico's Caribbean coast killed seven people and left at least a dozen others injured. The explosion, apparently caused by a buildup of gas, happened in the lobby of the Grand Riviera Princess hotel in Playa del Carmen, The Associated Press said.

But then they go on to say....

It isn't clear what caused the explosion. None of the areas of the hotel that are normally hooked up to the natural gas system, such as the kitchens, were damaged. Sponsored Links Alor said initial investigations were focusing on the possibility that naturally occurring gas from a nearby swamp had built up under the hotel and somehow ignited.

I have a hard time believing that. What are your guys thoughts?

mexico is corrupt form the guy who sells tacos to the president of mexico why would you expect anything less. i dont mean to be a jerk but the country of mexico is run by the drug cartels and anyone who thinks other wise is a moron.

Hmmmmm,

Let me see here. They are referring to swamp gas. I thought that was only responsible for false UFO reports. And all the areas that actually use the natural gas line for the building were untouched.

Sounds like someone is playing editor before the heat for the cartels that probably dropped off a suitcase full of explosives in the lobby. Just saying.

Interesting...I'm anxious to see what additional information comes of this.
I'm very familiar with that area and as far as I know, there are no public natural gas lines, properties use re-fillable gas tanks.

IMO I believe that there would be some interesting finds in the background checks of the people killed. Maybe someone was in bed with some mean murderous people who love to leave to gas running for their friends. It smells to much like an assassination that went right so their covering the story with that bogus story.. One Love.

It's five Canadians dead and two Mexicans. My condolences to the familys. The TV news talked to a guy that was there the day before and he said he could smell a strange odor ,like sulphur, his words. They say it comes from the swamp and has been building up under the porches and building.
