After an early Thursday morning tractor-trailer fire that shut down the northbound lanes of Interstate 95 past Maryland 198 in Laurel, all lanes have reopened.
VIDEO: Crews have finally separated the car and tractor trailer cab on 95 in Maryland after a rear-end collision and 40 minute fire essentially fused them together. Clean-up will be extensive, consider the BW Pkwy for a while to avoid
