An Amazon semi-truck that caught fire was causing major delays on Interstate 80 in Placer County late Wednesday afternoon.
Caltrans said westbound I-80 just north of Applegate was reduced to one lane as crews worked to clear the big rig from the area.
As of around 3:30 p.m., Caltrans said the fire had been put out but there was no estimated time for the lanes to reopen.
A photo from the scene shows the rear end of the big rig with extensive fire damage and packages spilled out onto the side of the road.
