According to several news outlets, the pilot had attempted to abort the takeoff due to weather (or engine failure depending on the source), but the aircraft overran the runway. Would not be surprised if this ends up being wrong.
95 people aboard and there are injuries, but no fatalities reported.
Registration is XA-GAL.

I guess we can learn not to take off in a severe thunderstorm microburst/windshear weather conditions?

On Aug 1st 2018 Mexico's Ministry of Transport (SCT) reported the aircraft failed to take off and never became airborne, but veered off the runway and ran through rough terrain causing substantial damage to the aircraft including both engines detaching from the airframe.

Nah, lets just rely on freaking audio saved on a reel to reel.
