The Tennessee Highway Patrol says a trailer loaded with fireworks caught fire while traveling through East Tennessee Saturday, sending fireworks exploding across the interstate and forcing traffic to stop as emergency crews responded.
Video from the scene showed a trailer on fire with fireworks going off in different directions.
The trailer carrying fireworks that caught on fire on I-75 Saturday had multiple safety violations and could have had "far more serious consequences," said the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
