A broken down tractor-trailer near exit 93 causes traffic to back up in the northbound lane of Interstate 55 on Wednesday morning in Cape Girardeau. The tractor-trailer caught fire in the wheel area and came to rest at mile marker 92.8, causing the right lane of I-55 to be closed while repairs could be made to remove the tractor-trailer.
