Fire Destroys Car

No one was injured in an early morning vehicle fire that destroyed a car and burned some grass near a road in northeast Saline County.

Sheriff Roger Soldan tells KSAL News that Mariah Davis of Salina noticed her 1992 Toyota Corolla was overheating from a leaking radiator and pulled over in the 7800 block of E. Stimmel Road around 3am Monday morning.

The hot car sparked a grass fire that consumed the vehicle in flames.

Rural Fire District #5 responded to the blaze.

Davis and her passenger, Alex Rothrock were not hurt.
