Truck drivers driving on Interstate 5 in Lakehead, Shasta County, were forced to abandon their vehicles as the fast-moving Delta Fire encroached on September 5.
This video, filmed on the southbound lane of the interstate near the La Moine exit, shows a semi-trailer truck scorched by the flames and a pile of debris still burning.
According to local media, the fire was reported just before 1 pm and attended to by over 600 personnel. Officials shut down the busy interstate in both directions as the fire spread dangerously close.
As of Wednesday night, the fire stood at around 2,000 acres with no containment.
