VANDALIA —

A pickup truck quickly became engulfed in flames this morning after a teenager turned on the vehicle to drive to school.

The truck caught fire about 10 feet away from a house at 6790 Homestretch Road. Officials said a teenager smelled smoke coming from the truck after he turned it on, and he went inside to get his dad.

By the time the father and son came back outside, the truck was engulfed in flames according to reports.

The fire did not cause any damage to the house. No one was injured.
