RV Burns on the HE Bailey Turnpike/I-44

Question

I passed by the rest stop at MM 86 on the HE Bailey Turnpike/I-44 earlier today.  As we passed, we saw an RV (not sure what type -- I couldn't see it -- my grandson told me)  It was parked at the pump and in flames.  Several fire trucks and police vehicles were there.  In addition a long convoy of Army Humvees was parked there.  Didn't stop, and could not see what else might have been damaged.  Also, I have seen no news coverage so far.  This happend about 1pm CST.

Just a reminder folks to be as careful as possible out there.

I live 30 miles from that rest stop.  I have not seen anything on it from any of the local news sources.  This is in SW Oklahoma three miles north of Chickasha,OK.GM

Hopefully no one was injured or all will recover.

I am hoping the same.  We saw the smoke form some distance. At first, I thought it was a grass fire.  Trucks usually park between the pumps and the road; however, today there was a long line of Army Humvees there which blocked my view. My grandson saw it and told me it was an RV at one of the humps.
