Firefighters were called to a large fire at 1200 Judd Road in Chattanooga -- that's just off Amnicola Highway near the McDonald's.The company is ADM Trucking.Chattanooga Fire Dept. spokesperson Bruce Garner said the fire that began in or around a semi-tractor nearly turned into a large commercial fire shortly before 5:00 p.m.Employees at Woodbridge Manufacturing first noticed thick, black smoke pouring from the diesel shop across the street that is owned by ADM and called 911. Captain Bill Dautrich said the fire was basically consuming a semi-tractor that was parked inside the diesel shop. The fiberglass, tires and fuel all contributed to the large volume of smoke that could be seen from miles away. The firefighters got the fire under control fairly quickly, saving most of the large, metal building. No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire is undetermined at this time.Photos by Bruce Garner, Chattanooga Fire Dept.
