PHOTOS: A part of MD Route 355 was closed to drivers in Gaithersburg Wednesday morning after a car caught fire in the roadway. Details remain limited; however, in a post on the X platform just before 9:30 a.m., Pete Piringer with the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service said crews were responding to a vehicle fire in at 700 S Frederick Avenue, near N Westland Drive and S Westland Drive. At the scene, they found a red SUV fully engulfed in flames. No one was hurt in the fire, according to Piringer. Crews closed northbound S Frederick Avenue (Route 355) to traffic as they worked to clear the scene.
