A massive semi-truck fire led to the closure of a major interstate in Indiana on Monday. The fire shut down southbound lanes of I-65 in Jasper County. The massive inferno was caught on video. Fire officials said the truck’s cargo of aerosol spray-paint cans exploding one by one led to the gunfire-like sounds.
