Mexico City airport blacked out

A still-unexplained electrical failure shut down the Mexico City airport on Wednesday night, forcing the cancelation of more than 100 flights and forcing many others en route to land elsewhere. The lights went out at 7:45 p.m. and were not restored until well after midnight. A short circuit is being blamed and investigations are underway regarding the cause.
