Cars Burn in Connecticut Used Car Lot

Fire officials say at least five cars at a Woodford, Connecticut used car lot went up in flames in an early morning fire.

The fire at Bob & Sons Pre-Owned Cars at about 6 a.m. on Monday forced authorities to shut down Route 63 during the morning commute.

There was no immediate word on the cause. The chief told WTNH-TV that it appears that the fire started with one or two cars that were in the middle of the lot and blocked in by other cars. The state fire marshal is investigating.

There were no reports of injuries.
