A pickup truck hauling a trailer caught fire along eastbound Interstate 10 between Boerne and Comfort at about noon on Sunday. According to a witness who lives near the scene, a couple of explosions were heard at the location, which was near the Kendall County Youth Agricultural & Equestrian Center. It appeared two individuals safely had exited the vehicle as it began to burn, the witness said. Both eastbound lanes of traffic were blocked while fire department and Kendall County Sheriff’s Office personnel responded and worked the scene. After the fire was extinguished, one lane of traffic was allowed to pass until the scene was cleared. Attempts to reach the sheriff’s office for more information were unsuccessful.
