A truck trailer parked behind the CVS on Wisconsin Ave. in Tenleytown caught fire Monday at about 5:30 p.m.
No one was hurt and nearby businesses, including CVS, were not closed. But the smoky fire, as well as water from fire hoses and emergency vehicles parked on Wisconsin Ave., led to traffic delays in the area.
