MEXICO CITY — People in a village just north of Mexico City complained of a persistent odor of gasoline for weeks, but even they were surprised when the community’s spring-water well burst into flames and began belching dense black smoke.
Water catching fire may sound strange, but in Mexico gasoline leaks have been blamed for several tragedies in the past. The fire broke out late last week in the hamlet of Mexicaltongo, in the township of Jilotepec, not far from a major refinery. Jilotepec Mayor Rodolfo Noguez said late Monday that officials of the oil company, known as Pemex, had agreed to visit the water spring to investigate the huge fire.
