Just before 3:30p Tuesday afternoon, the front-end of a truck exploded in the median of the westbound South Loop 289 access road between Quaker Avenue to Slide Road.

There are no reports of any injuries and the Lubbock Fire Department officials have not released a cause to the fire.

Traffic was backed up on the access road as first responders worked to put out the fire.
