ALBION – Albion firefighters Fred Piano and A.J. Fisher hose down a spot on Route 31 where a car burst into flames at about 1:40 p.m. today near the Transit Road intersection.
The car was being hauled to a scrap yard on a trailer. Something from the car was hanging and sparked from hitting the road. That spark caused the car to catch fire, Albion Fire Chief Rob Conner said.
