Semi Fire Snarls I-80 Traffic Near Princeton

Posted by wlpo on July 19, 2013

Driving Interstate 80 in parts of Bureau County is tough enough with construction.  Adding to the headache yesterday was a fire.

Fire crews from Princeton, Manlius and Buda all were called to a semi fire on the eastbound lanes of I-80 early Thursday afternoon.  When crews arrived the semi’s cab was fully engulfed.

No one was hurt.  The fire did shut down traffic for several minutes on eastbound I-80 west of Princeton.
