PHOTOS: Firefighters have responded to a semi-truck that caught fire Tuesday afternoon on the interstate.
The fire call came in after 4:50 p.m. The incident happened on Interstate 15 near Grandview Drive.
The Idaho Falls Fire Department responded.
According to city spokesman Eric Grossarth, the fire is out, and no injuries have been reported.
Drivers should expect delays in the area. Both southbound lanes were originally closed; however, the left lane is now open. The right lane remains closed while firefighters clean up, Grossarth told EastIdahoNews.com.
“It looks like there was a fire in one of the tires and axle areas,” Grossarth said. “The semi-truck itself disconnected from the trailer.”
