Car Fire Mississippi River Bridge

Traffic remains slow on Mississippi River Bridge after car fire

BATON ROUGE — Traffic remains slow after several lanes were shut down Friday due to a car fire on I-10 at the Mississippi River Bridge.

Video sent to UWK shows a car fully engulfed in flames in the far left lane on the eastbound side of I-10. The West Baton Rouge Fire Department also posted a photo of firefighters extinguishing the blaze.

No one was injured, and all lanes have since reopened; however, traffic is still backed up to La. 415.
