Fire chiefs have issued a warning after an e-scooter was blamed for a devastating blaze that tore through a row of seven houses. The Telegraph has the story.
Families in Gosport, Hampshire, were forced to flee their homes on Wednesday evening, after a fire broke out at a three-storey property before spreading to surrounding buildings.
A spokesman for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service said: “The initial reports and the preliminary fire investigation has found that an e-scooter is the most likely cause of the fire.
“The main danger occurs when e-bikes and e-scooters are left on charge and unattended in homes or in communal areas such as hallways and stairwells.
“Charging lithium batteries indoors increases the fire risk, especially if charged overnight when occupants are sleeping.“
A total of 10 fire engines and 60 firemen worked through the night to control the blaze, which spread through seven out of the eight houses in the terrace.
Images of the aftermath show the roofs of several of the buildings have collapsed, with the underlying structures now so fragile that many families cannot return to their homes.
“It was just an inferno and it happened so quickly and it just spread,” a neighbour Fiona Taylor told ITV Meridian.
Sounds like a miracle no one died.

The crook Fauci.
Hopefully he’ll have plenty of more dealing with judges.
Yes hoping too.
I signed The Barrington Declaration early on, the writers were those scientists, who were both censored and devalued in both the US and verbally in our parliament by a in my view a shabby dishonest contribution by Matt Hancock . If this US court case is successful could this give weight to prosecutions here too please?
I do hope so.
Incidentally, there was a hilarious quip of the horrible former health secretary (and Sino Sunak supporter) on GB News’s Dan Wooton show tonight. And a comment also on GB News (Mark Steyn?) about the MHRA getting 90% of their funding from former pharaceutical companies. Do you think the Yellow Card figure for “vaccine” deaths might possibly be on the low side?
I should add that it should have been blindingly obvious to one and all that something was up when Oxford professor Carl Heneghan (who notably succeeded in stopping PHE from counting anyone who died who had ever tested positive for “covid” as a “covid” death in August 2020) started getting censored.
Yes thanks I will look need humour too.
And it is not just a tangled web it’s a mangled web of deceit and will need to be unpicked so those who enabled this authoritarian censorship can be exposed. That’s the start I hope please god.
And another interesting fact to remember is that beloved Patrick Vallance held £600,000 worth of Big Pharma shares at the start of the deluge of Covid nonsense.
It was asked, might there possibly be a tiny conflict of interest?
Oh no! How preposterous! How could you suggest such a thing! After all, he isn’t the man that chooses which brand of bioweapon that will be pushed in your arm!!
I wonder what his shares are worth today? In any case he has received a second knighthood for his efforts.
And he is just one of these shithouse rats.
I think it might be 86 rather than 90% but that’s beside the point. It’s why the MHRA is now an “enabler” rather than a “regulator” according to their boss.
Please, give credit where credit is due – crook and murderer.
Good. Let’s see if he perjures himself.
I guess that, sadly, the death penalty is not imposed on perjury.
Fauci is finding himself mat the centre of a few things which are going to be difficult to explain. I do hope he doesn’t commit suicide.
There is a small possibility of a heart attack. However, Fraudci is such an inveterate liar that perhaps he will convince his handlers that he will be able to lie his way out of this.
I know little of the US judicial system but fear that this Order will be appealed to death?
Big tobacco’s eventual demise (although they still make billions) was initially procured via Discovery/Inspection, but it took decades to nail the bastards.
Let us hope for swifter justice this time – but don’t hold your breath.
I find myself hoping that Fauci doesn’t die before this process is completed. I want him in an American jail.
An American friend & I have decided that public humiliation in the being pelted with rotten produce would be the best punishment for this egotistical maniac. She also wondered whether being pelted with loaded syringes would be taking it a tad too far…. But as she said, dreams are not yet censored
