61 Bravo, just for info, I'm talking with the guy's friend that's translating for him. He said he didn't hit anything, that the car just abruptly started on fire in the engine. He pulled over and got out.

Traffic is being restricted southbound near the fire to manage the situation safely.

PPD Desert Horizon A6 600 Dispatch · 0:26
17. Yeah, they're coming 23. If the Tom Charlie unit can give a little traffic break at Camelback and 19th Avenue for southbound traffic, it looks like they're going to set up facing southbound. So that's where we'd like to restrict the traffic first. The next unit can take Elm and 19th Avenue and set a traffic break there and take over for me. 3 unit for 19th Avenue and Elm. 611 Bravo. 10-4.

The car is fully engulfed in flames, but no one is inside. The driver is uninjured.

PPD Desert Horizon A6 600 Dispatch · 0:32
61 Bravo, you can start another couple units. Looks like it's going to go fully engulfed. Doesn't look like anybody's in the car right now. Copy, I am on 21 with fire now. Is there a couple units for 19th Avenue in person for the vehicle fire? 61 Bravo, I'm out with the driver. There's a little bit of language barrier. He said he hit somebody or something to that effect. He said he's okay. Nobody else involved. Involved in the car. Copy, no injury.

Firefighters are being dispatched to the car fire. Police are checking for occupants.
