A semi truck was seriously damaged by fire near Michigan City, Indiana, on Monday.
The truck fire occurred on May 19 on eastbound I-94, about a mile east of Michigan City, according to the Indiana State Police’s Lowell Post.
Troopers said that a truck traveling on the interstate “experienced tire failure,” which in turn led to a serious vehicle fire.
Fortunately, the driver was able to safely park the truck on the shoulder, and no injuries were reported.
Multiple firefighting agencies responded to the scene.
The truck was hauling 27,000 pounds of canned food, troopers say.
