Indiana State Police Lowell Post shared footage of the fire while warning drivers that lanes in both south and northbound directions were closed on I-65. All southbound lanes will remain closed for an indeterminate amount of time, police said.

“This cleanup is expected to last into the night due to the surface of the roadway being significantly damaged,” ISP said.

In the footage, large plumes of fire and smoke can be seen engulfing all lanes of the interstate.
