Interstate 20 reopens after fiery crash involving fire truck in Cobb County

COBB COUNTY, Ga. — All westbound lanes of Interstate 20 were blocked Sunday morning because of a fiery crash involving a fire truck.

The accident happened early Sunday around the Thornton Road exit. The crash was cleared by 7:30 a.m.

Georgia Department of Transportation officials tell Channel 2's Lauren Pozen it started with a car crash where two vehicles were on the right shoulder. That's when Cobb County fire came out to help.

GDOT said another driver passing by rear-ended the fire truck, which caused both vehicles to catch fire. There are no reports of injuries.
