Mt. Juliet fire crews responded to a trash fire they believed was likely caused by a hoverboard.
It happened at Deerfield Apartments on Providence Drive in Mt. Juliet around 1:35 p.m.
The trash compactor was full of 5 days worth of trash from the complex. The hoverboard was found on top of the crash partially melted and burned.
