A fire Tuesday killed 16 residents of a nursing home on the outskirts of Mexicali, the capital of Baja California, officials said. Mayor Jaime Díaz said five people rescued from the home near the California border had been hospitalized. A local charity runs the home, Beautiful Twilight, which houses indigent elderly people. There was no immediate evidence of an electrical fault or gas leak, Mr. Díaz said, and investigators were theorizing that the fire had been intentionally set.
