Truck Fire Cause of Kinsman Accident

The Ohio State Highway Patrol reported a garbage truck load caught fire on Kinsman Road in Burton Township Monday around 4 p.m.

The driver pulled into a parking lot at 33049 Kinsman Road to dump the burning material so his truck would not burn up. When traffic slowed to look at the fire, several vehicles collided, the patrolman said.

No injuries were reported, but traffic was backed up along Kinsman for a mile or more during rush hour.
