Electric scooter catches fire

The Ann Arbor Fire Department says an early morning apartment fire could have easily killed someone had their smoke detector not been working. "The second they start not working properly, you should leave them outside, ideally ten feet from a residence or any sort of structure for a minimum of 24 hours," said Ann Arbor Fire Chief Mike Kennedy. The department says to be aware of warning signs like pungent odors, blistering of the battery casing, leaking fluid, high battery temperatures, or actual popping, hissing, and smoke coming from it. #fire #battery #scooter #electric #annarbor #michigan #shorts
