HOUSTON -- Some of the westbound lanes of Highway 225 have reopened near the City of Pasadena early Thursday after a truck fire and hazmat spill.
The fire broke out near Allen Genoa before 4 a.m., reports Houston TranStar.
Officials say the truck was carrying plastic pellets when the vehicle's brakes overheated and started the fire. The fire was put out before it spread to the entire cargo area.
The truck's driver was not hurt.
