    The crash was at the F.M. 1431 exit. Williamson County Public Affairs Manager Connie Watson says the call came in at 2:46 a.m. reporting two semi-trucks were involved in a crash and one of them caught fire.

    After the fire was put out, Watson says paramedics took one patient to Williamson County Seton Hospital. The condition of that person is unknown at this time. One other person involved refused treatment.

    Nothing to see here. I'm sure this was an "aftermarket DPF system" [based on approximately 1:200 odds] :biggrin_25523:
