PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. — Part of a main road is closed in Pinellas County after an electrical fire in the engine of a tractor-trailer.
Florida Highway Patrol says all northbound lanes of CR-611, north of 126th Avenue North, are shut down because the fire disabled the big rig while it was turning. Now, that large truck is stuck.
Drivers should avoid the area and seek other northbound routes.
