North Lyon Fire crews responded early Tuesday morning to a semi-truck fire near the entrance to a local truck stop.
The call came in shortly after 12:30 a.m. Responding firefighters arrived to find the tractor portion of the semi heavily involved in flames, with the fire threatening to spread to the attached trailer.
Crews quickly began attacking the fire and were able to bring it under control before conducting an extensive overhaul to make sure the fire was fully extinguished.
The trailer was loaded with beverages and was confirmed to contain no hazardous materials.
North Lyon Fire support personnel were called to assist with additional resources, and law enforcement officers also helped at the scene.
No injuries were reported. Damage was limited to the truck and trailer.
North Lyon Fire said the incident was another example of the around-the-clock nature of emergency response, with career and support personnel responding while much of the community was asleep.
