Aftermath of Lady Antebellum tour bus fire Via WFAA

A harrowing moment in Dallas this morning, as Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott escaped a tour bus that caught fire on Interstate 30.

The singer was heading to Arlington for this weekend’s 50th annual ACM Awards at AT&T Stadium.

Hey guys, we had a crazy morning on the way to Dallas today. Our bus tire caught on fire and we had to evacuate very quickly. EVERYONE IS SAFE AND SOUND. It was me, my husband, our tour manager, and driver. Thanking God for our safety and the safety of all of those who helped put this fire out and keep us safe. Love you all!!!! ~hillary
