    I have a hard time buying that was a firework.....day time or no a commercial firework would have had some kind of fireworky bit to it crackleing poping sparks ect. That looks a lot more like an IED of some kind. I could be wrong sure but....all the signs are wrong. Not to mention how halariously regulated commercial fireworks are makes it even less likely. I think you need to be ATF licensed to even buy them iirc.

    Doesn't resemble firework or IED. Looks like someone hit it with car hauler upper ramp or OS load on flatbed.

    I’m with the hit and run crowd. No burn marks and you’d think a fire woulda started with all that cheap Frieghtliner plastic in that sleeper.

    There was something airborne inbound on the one video. Not a strike by another vehicle. It also looks like a ricochet after initial impact

    Agree. My previous post based only on photo picture, not the video. Definitely compressed gas driven projectile. Fire extinguisher or something alike.
