A truck carrying a house struck a power line and the home caught fire in the 700 block of Old Spanish Trail Monday afternoon. The roadway was closed for several hours but has now been opened. After the fire was extinguished, the house was moved from the roadway. The building will be demolished Tuesday mornings. Old Spanish Trail is still closed in the area. Scott Police Chief Chad Leger says a moving company was moving a house from Timmy Street and headed west on Old Spanish Trail at around 2:00 pm Monday when the fire broke out. The roof hit a power line which was not lifted high enough according to Leger. A surge went through the home and caused the wheels of the vehicle to burst and catch fire. That fire then spread to the cab of 18-wheeler and trailer and then moved to the home being transported. The route was approved before moving the home and a State Police escort was traveling with the over-sized load.
