(ATMORE, Ala.) May 11 - A big rig driver is dead and traffic is still a mess after a fiery interstate wreck this afternoon.

It happened on I-65 between Flomaton and Atmore. The truck caught on fire after the wreck.

Alabama state troopers say the tractor trailer was carrying steel coils which may have shifted, causing the accident.

The driver's name has not been released as officials work to notify his next of kin.
