Tractor fire

I was sitting outside in the walmart (New Hartford) parking lot having lunch around 12:30 this afternoon when all of a sudden I heard a big boom. I looked over towards best buy and saw this big cloud of smoke. It sounded like a car bomb or a car exploded. At first it looked like it was in the best buy parking lot. But when my boyfriend and I went to leave we saw it was right out in the main road in front of best buy and applebees. It was a tractor, the fire department arrived very fast and had the fire out quick. As we drove by the tractor was really black from the fire that had been on it. Didn't see anything on the news about this yet. Wonder why not, it happened at noon time. I hope no one got hurt badly.
