On the night of Tuesday 3 to Wednesday, September 4, 2019, the firefighters intervened in Péault, commune of the south-Vendée, to take charge of two men of 63 and 35 years and a woman of 65 years, after a beginning of fire.
Slightly burnt on the feet
An electric scooter caught fire under circumstances we do not know yet. The three occupants of the place were inconvenienced by the smoke, and some of them slightly burned their feet trying to extinguish the fire. They were transported to the hospital.
Suspicion about this type of purchase
The machine had been purchased "on a foreign website , " says a police officer, who advises the distrust of this type of purchase "we do not know if the quality and safety were controlled ." A week ago, it was a hoverboard that caught fire in the mobile home of a campsite in Sables-d'Olonne. The explosion of the lithium battery was at the origin of the fire.
