On my way home on Tuesday, I spotted smoke drifting over I-894/43, and exited at 84th Street to investigate. I turned onto Layton Avenue, then north onto the Forest Home Avenue frontage road, where I spotted this truck on fire. At first, I thought it may have been a FedEx truck because of its light color, but it turned out to be an Industrial Towel & Uniform^ truck. Based on the photos that I took, I think the engine started on fire, possibly due to the hot and humid conditions of the day. I presume the driver was all right.
