The fire started Friday afternoon on one of the lower floors and spread above the building. According to the representative of an emergency of Carlos Fuentes, the building was evacuated at least 50 people.
About 25 people were taken to hospitals for treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning and burns. Some of them were seriously injured.
