BUSHLAND, Texas, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- The smell of cooking onions wafted toward Frying Pan Road in Texas when a truckload of the vegetables caught fire on the interstate.
Authorities said the eastbound lanes of Interstate 40 between Frying Pan Road and Atkinson were closed Tuesday outside Bushland when a tire blowout led to sparks shooting into the semi and igniting boxes of onions.
