According to Massachusetts State Police, the car caught fire just after 7 a.m. on the westbound side of the Pike beyond the Prudential Tunnel. Making matters worse, several cars also hit debris on the road in that area. The westbound side of the Pike was shut down and traffic has backed up all the way to Logan Airport.

An electric car caught fire on the Massachusetts Turnpike, closing the westbound I-90. Firefighters responded; no injuries reported.

A part of the Massachusetts Turnpike was closed Friday morning due to an electric vehicle fire. Elk Grove Village officials are speaking out after a group of young people riding e-bikes and dirt bikes created a "dangerous situation" in the suburb.
