WEST PALM BEACH, FL -- The driver of a fuel tanker truck that exploded into flames in the northbound lanes of I-95, is worried about one of his two dogs that hasn't been seen since the accident.
Jimmy Hill says he was in the process of delivering a full tank of gasoline when he couldn't avoid a station wagon that was disabled in the middle of the freeway.
The next thing he knew the entire tanker was in a ball of flames, and he had seconds to get out and get to safety.
He managed to rescue one of his two Springer spaniels, Jubilee, but was not able to get the other, Jesse, who was seen running away.
The crash happened near Palm Beach International Airport, between the Southern Boulevard and Forest Hill Boulevard interchanges.
All but two right lanes have reopened.
Jimmy says he was lucky to have only received some burns on his left arm. He was more concerned about finding Jesse.
