Fire!

Emailer Kasie writes: Van on fire on Hwy 114 between Boyd and Rhome, has hwy closed!!! Yeah, it was in pink. (Click to enlarge.) With an update from emailer Leland: "Noticed you already had a post on this. Here’s some video from my phone (poor quality). From what I’ve heard, these folks were 3 miles from home when they noticed smoke coming out the rear A/C vents. By the time they were able to stop and unload, which included a man in a wheel chair, flames were coming out the vents. It was surprising how fast the entire van was engulfed in flames. Thank God every one made it out." Video now uploaded to youtube:
