A Des Moines man died in a fiery crash in rush-hour traffic on Interstate Highways 35/80 north of Hickman Road in Urbandale, police said.

Jamison Allen Walker, 20, of Des Moines died when his car was hit in the rear around 6 p.m. by a wide-load tractor-trailer, police said. Walker's vehicle burst into flames almost immediately and spun into the ditch, a police report said.

Numerous passers-by and Urbandale police officers unsuccessfully tried to put out the fire with fire extinguishers and bottles of water, the report said. Urbandale firefighters later extinguished the flames. Walker died at the scene.
