Also killed were former Deputy Attorney General Josi Luis Santiago Vasconcelos and Miguel Monterubio Cubas, the director of social communication, Calderon said.
Forty people on the ground were injured, said government spokesman Marcelo Ebrard. All eight fatalities were passengers and crew from the plane, the spokesman said.
No cause for the crash was immediately given, but Calderon said the results of the investigation would be revealed.
"My deepest condolences to the families of the victims and I offer my support during this time," Calderon said in the televised address.
Mourino, he said, "was one of my closest colleagues and one of my best friends. ... With his death, Mexico loses a great Mexican."
The plane was traveling from the north-central city of San Luis Potosi to Mexico City, Calderon said.
Air controller Angel Iturbe told Mexican news agency Notimex that when the aircraft left San Luis Potosi, the pilot reported an emergency but did not say what it was before losing communication.

上面這位就是罹難的墨西哥內政部長Juan Camilo Mouriño
據墨西哥當地新聞說,
載了墨西哥官員(其中一位是內政部長)的小飛機(應該不是觀光小飛機)墜毀在墨西哥市中心的Periferico快速道路旁?或上?,
Pericferico快速道路是連通墨西哥南北的8線道大路,
類似台北的快速道路高架橋,
而且是在交通尖峰時刻墜毀,
此飛機墜毀時大約燒毀了15部汽車, 40多個人受傷,
機上人員皆死亡,
受波及的地上路人及行人不知道有多少人死亡,
真的超級誇張!!
