Firefighters were called to the scene at 1:06 am and discovered the pair of trucks fully engulfed in flames.

Crews battled the fire for more than an hour before it was declared under control.

No injuries were reported.

In late January a fire destroyed multiple semi-trucks and trailers in the same area of the city. That fire was deemed arson and caused more than $7 million in damages.
