Six semi-tractors burn in Northeast Minneapolis railyard fire

Written by TNNBot on

Minneapolis Fire Department crews responded around 12:15 a.m. Saturday to a railyard at 29th Avenue NE and Central Avenue NE, where six semi-tractors were found fully engulfed in flames. Firefighters brought the blaze under control in about 20 minutes and reported no injuries. The railroad company told officials there were no hazardous materials in the immediate area, and Xcel Energy was called in to shut down a nearby electrical line that had been exposed to the fire. The cause remains under investigation, and no damage estimate has been released. For Northeast residents and businesses that rely on freight and truck access, the incident highlights the fire risk tied to aging equipment and dense industrial corridors that sit close to homes and commercial strips.
