Toby Keith not on board when bus catches fire

INDIANAPOLIS, July 1 (UPI) -- Country music star Toby Keith was not on board when his tour bus caught fire in Indiana Monday morning, a Boone County dispatcher told the Indianapolis Star.

Everyone on the bus got out safely, but a section of I-65 South between Lebanon and Whitestown was temporarily shut down while the fire was extinguished and the vehicle cleared, the newspaper said.

The cause of the blaze and the extent of the damage to the bus were not reported.

Keith performed Sunday in the Chicago area and is scheduled to take the stage Saturday in Norman, Okla.
