The A113 is currently closed in the city-bound direction at the Berlin-Adlershof area due to a truck fire. In the southbound direction, the roadway is expected to be reopened

on Wednesday, a police spokesperson said.

Cleanup and recovery work are continuing. How long the partial closure will remain in place was not yet known. However, the police assume

that it could extend into the midday hours.

A fruit-loaded trailer attached to a truck had caught fire on the highway on Wednesday night. No one was injured, according

to a statement from the fire department. The driver was able to get to safety. Why the fire started was not initially known. The police are investigating the cause
