Two big rigs appear to have collided, sending one off the roadway and setting the other on fire, according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center. The flames were extinguished just before 8 a.m and the lanes reopened about 9:45, Henry County police said.
SOUTH SIDE FIRE! I really hope the drivers involved are ok! The rig that's on fire has I-75/sb shut down at I-675. Looks like this one hit another tractor trailer over to the right. Coverage now on @wsbradio and online @wsbtv. #ATLtraffic pic.twitter.com/urApvkyom5
