I saw a report on this, from The Associated Press. It was en route to Texas
"when it went down for reasons that were not immediately clear".
Later on, I'll see whether a web-search on newspapers in the Monterrey area
carry any further reports.

Fellow Commander Drivers,
Anyone who is considering the use of automobile gas should keep in mind that
car gas now gets stale pretty quick, and av gas does not. Many of us who
ride our motorcycles seldom (like my wife) or have power generators which
operate infrequently have found that we must drain the old gas and put in
new gas just to get the engine started. This problem has become so great
for my business partners old car collection, that I recently picked up a
drum of 100LL at the airport for him.
Regards,
Moe Mills

Some brands of auto gas may contain alcohol that can cause a lot of damage
to hoses and seals.
