Class A fire I70 Dayton, OH

Didn't get any pictures, was driving. It appeared the back half was burnt. When the local news puts up pics, I'll post them.

Hope everyone is OK.

Yes, think it was a Jeep but I was busy dodging rubberneckers.

First reports are suggesting a blown tire.

Huber Heights police on scene told News Center 7 that a blown tire likely created sparks that caused something on the RV to catch fire.

If that's the cause: let it serve as a reminder to everyone about the importance of monitoring the condition of your tires,, and proper tire inflation...

And replace your tires at 5 or 6 years no matter how they look!
