VIDEO: Car Catches Fire on I-93

This video was sent to us by the car's owner – Jamie Monks.

Scrolling signs were up on Interstate 93 Friday afternoon to warn commuters backed up in traffic that a car had caught fire on the southbound stretch between Exit 2 and Exit 3.

The owner of the vehicle, 23-year-old Jamie Monks, sent Windham Patch a video of his car's final moments.

The Salem Fire Department was on the scene to douse the fire, which exploded from Monks' white Toyota Corolla as he was driving to work in Salem.
