Car Carrier Catches Fire on I-95

Milford Fire Department units were dispatched to a reported truck fire on I-95 Northbound in the area of Exit 40 early Monday morning.  Arriving units found a loaded car carrier with fire spreading from the cab area to the vehicles the truck was carrying. 

Hose lines were stretched to the I-95 standpipes on East Town Road to provide water to the units on 95 fighting the fire.  Two Lanes of I-95 along with the Exit 40 off ramp were closed while the fire was brought under control. 

Representatives from the fire marshal's office are investigating the cause of the fire.
