A truck fire that caught fire under an on-ramp on I-95 caused part of the roadway to collapse and the roadway to be closed to traffic by officials early Sunday .<\/p>\n
NBC’s Randy Gyllenhaal reported that officials on the scene said they were investigating after the northbound side of I-95 collapsed before 8 a.m. and the southbound side is “compromised.”<\/p>\n
Gyllenhaal said officials told him “the road is gone.” <\/p>\n
Concrete and road debris could be seen covering the truck on Sunday morning. <\/p>\n
But officials told NBC10 they’re not sure it’s a tanker, as previously reported, since they haven’t been able to get inside it yet to look for a driver. <\/p>\n
Just before 7 a.m., smoke and flames could be seen coming from a burning tanker truck near the Cottman Avenue on-ramp to I-95.<\/p>\n
Around 7 a.m., police vehicles were seen blocking traffic on the northbound section of the freeway at the Aramingo Avenue exit.<\/p>\n
All lanes of 1-95 are closed in both directions near the Cottman Avenue exit due to a large fire. Smoke is visible. Avoid 1-95 near Northeast Philadelphia and expect delays. https:\/\/t.co\/DydujHbkqr<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Philadelphia OEM (@PhilaOEM) June 11, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n Law enforcement has not provided further information on what may have caused the fire. <\/p>\n Authorities have not yet reported any injuries. <\/p>\n This is breaking news.
