A fuel tanker on Thursday 14th April 2022 burst into flames in Kabale district paralyzing traffic along Kabale-Mbarara road.

By press time, traffic from either side of the road was still paralyzed but fire brigade was already at the scene extinguishing the fire.
The eyewitnesses said both the driver and turn man who were the only occupants of the tanker are safe and free from danger.
Police had by the time of filing this story not yet issued a statement concerning the incident.
