A semi-truck’s engine area caught fire at 6:55 a.m. Monday at the back of the BonTon parking lot at The Point at Carlisle Plaza.

Carlisle Fire Chief Bob Kennedy says crews from Cumberland-Goodwill and Union fire stations put the fire out within five minutes, but they had to continue to work to stop a fuel leak because the fire burned through the fuel line.

Kennedy says the truck driver and his four-year-old son, who were uninjured in the fire, were sleeping in the truck’s trailer when the driver heard something coming from the front of the truck. That’s when he saw the fire.
