Fist it was an explosion in a parking structure, then it was in the basement near AC units...Next we'll be told it was on the roof of the building...

They already know what caused this regardless if it was an accident or a bomb ...Why they are not saying is very suspect..

Sounds like PEMEX got capped by a Mexican Drug Cartel. Note the silence
