HOUSTON COUNTY: Hodgesville Fire and Rehobeth Fire responded to a report of a vehicle fire in the 9700 block of US 231 South of Dothan. First unit on scene advised a SUV full involved in fire in the north bound lane.
When Hodgesville Fire arrived on scene they shut down both North bound lanes due to firefighters and fire hose in both lanes.
The smoke as you can see in the first photo could be seen from Hwy 605 and Hwy 109. Once firefighters got the fire somewhat knocked down and the deputy arrived he advised to reopen one lane so traffic could flow once again.
