- description: Rescue workers are trying to free trapped workers after an explosion ripped through several floors of a skyscraper in Mexico City.Twenty-five people are dead and at least 100 injured after an explosion at the headquarters of Mexican oil company Pemex. Some 46 people remain in hospital following the blast at the state-owned firm which blew out windows and damaged three floors of the 52-storey skyscraper in Mexico City's commercial centre.There are reports that as many as 30 people could be trapped in the debris from the explosion, which occurred in the basement of an administrative building next to the tower, where thousands of people work.Ana Vargas Palacio was distraught as she searched for her missing husband, Daniel Garcia Garcia, 36, who works in the building. She last heard from him at 1pm."I called his phone many times, but a young man answered and told me he found the phone in the debris," she said. The two have an 11-year-old daughter. His mother, Gloria Garcia Castaneda, collapsed on a friend's arm, crying, "My son. My son."Television images showed people being carried out of the building on office chairs. Most of them showed injuries likely to have been caused by falling debris.Pemex - full name Petroleos Mexicanos - said in a tweet that several workers were injured in the blast but no one answered at its offices.
