A tractor-trailer hauling a full load of hay is reportedly on fire in the eastbound lanes of the Thruway at mile marker 392.
Firefighters from the Town of Batavia are responding. The fire chief on scene reports smoke coming from the rear axel and says the trailer is disconnected from the cab.
UPDATE 11:11 a.m.: The fire has "not reached the payload," according to the chief. Water to cool the axel down is needed. "That's one thing I don't have on my (county) work truck," says a responder. The chief says "I got you covered."
