A pickup truck trailer that was hauling 6,000 pounds of onions caught fire Saturday night on I-75 in Florida, fire officials said.

Fire crews responded just after 8:30 p.m. to a fire near exit 354 on the interstate in Ocala and found the open trailer fully engulfed, Ocala Fire Rescue said.

Crews attacked the flames and extinguished the fire within three minutes of arriving at the scene, the department said.

The driver, who had pulled over and safely exited the pickup truck, told fire officials that he first noticed the flames after one of the truck’s tires blew out.
