DALLAS, Texas -- An 18-wheel big-rig crashed and caught fire early Wednesday in Dallas County while carrying some precious cargo: toilet paper.

It happened around 4 a.m. along Interstate 20 westbound.

The driver and his dog were not hurt, but the truck became engulfed in flames - burning thousands of rolls toilet paper along with it.

The interstate was closed for several hours while crews worked to put out the fire and get the big-rig towed away.
