Stunning video: 2 injured after gas truck bursts into flames on expressway

CHINA – Two people were hospitalized after a truck carrying natural gas burst into flames on an expressway in north China on Sunday.

A wall of flames appeared out of nowhere and three vehicles near the truck were damaged. Fortunately the drivers were able to escape in time and were uninjured.

Two people inside the gas truck were rushed to a hospital and treated for their burns.

The fire forced part of the expressway to close temporarily.

Firefighters said the natural gas on the truck was leaking and may have caused the fire.
