TIPPECANOE COUNTY, Ind. (WLFI) - A box truck caught fire Thursday morning on southbound US 52 near State Road 28.

Spenser King sent us the video to the left at 7:30 a.m. as he passed the truck.

You can see there the glowing embers after crews doused the fire.

The Tippecanoe County Sheriff's deputy on the scene would not speak with our NewsChannel 18 crew, so the cause of the fire is unknown at this time.
