A truck carrying frozen chickens is a total loss after catching fire late Wednesday night in Mesquite.
After the truck caught fire, the driver pulled over onto the shoulder on Interstate 20 near Lawson Road and attempted to put out the blaze with a fire extinguisher, according to FOX 4.
The driver was unsuccessful in his attempts, and when firefighters arrived on the scene, they found the truck fully engulfed in flames.
Dallas County Fire and Rescue assisted Mesquite firefighters by supplying water tankers.
Parts of I-20 were shut down for hours while crews worked to extinguish the fire and clean up the scene.
