Fire Truck Catches Fire On I-74

You usually find fire trucks at the scene of a fire, but Knoxville, Illinois firefighters found a fire truck on fire yesterday.  The truck belonged to the Normal Fire Department and was heading back from the shop when it burst into flames on I-74.  The firefighter inside tried to put out the flames, but couldn't and had to call 911.  Normal Fire Chief Doug Barnett says the truck was 14 years old and had just had its firefighting equipment reinstalled after undergoing some frame work.  It's likely a total loss.
