Highway 17 east of Kenora is open again after being shut down for several hours last night.
The OPP shut down the Trans-Canada just east of the Highway 71 intersection for about four
hours due to a fire on a semi tractor trailor unit.
The transport was hauling a load of hay bales, and some of the bales went up in flames
just after 9:00.
The Longbow Lake Volunteer Fire department was called out to help douse the flames.
