Toronto Fire responded to a call around 1:00 a.m. about a tractor-trailer on its side with the cab fully engulfed in flames.

There was also diesel leaking into the catch basins, according to Eckerman.
The truck was carrying construction materials but nothing hazardous.
No injuries were reported and the driver escaped unharmed.
The highway was closed for several hours as crews repaved the on-ramp.
