EARLHAM, Iowa — A quick-thinking FedEx driver escaped harm after their trailer caught fire this weekend. KCCI reports Earlham Fire and Rescue posted pictures on social media, Saturday. Early that morning, Earlham Fire was requested to help DeSoto Fire crews. Flames were coming from one of the sets of tires on the truck.

The driver had managed to get the other trailer and semi tractor unhooked and away from the burning trailer before they arrived. The fire was quickly knocked down. (Photos from the Earlham Fire & Rescue Facebook page)

Fire crews say many boxes had to be removed to make sure everything was put out.
