A concerned motorist dumped their vehicle and raced to raise the alarm bell after spotting flames engulfing a family home.<\/p>\n

The passer-by noticed the flames were coming from the storeroom of a property in Loftus Street, Temora, New South Wales. The drama unfolded at around 9am on Monday, September 4.<\/p>\n

Firefighters say the passer-by grabbed a hose and, along with the homeowner, began tackling the blaze to prevent it from spreading through the house. They managed to extinguish a majority of the fire.<\/p>\n

Fire and Rescue New South Wales extinguished spot fires around the house. They subsequently discovered\u00a0a faulty Lithium-Ion battery in one of two e-scooters caused the inferno.<\/p>\n

FRNSW Deputy Captain Grant Reid, said: “It appears the battery ignited spontaneously\u2026it wasn\u2019t being charged. Had the fire broken out in the middle of the night, this could have ended tragically.”<\/p>\n

Fire crews have now issued advice for anyone using devices with\u00a0Lithium-Ion batteries. This includes not\u00a0over-charging batteries or leave them charging overnight unattended or whilst you’re asleep.<\/p>\n

Not charging batteries and devices on beds, sofas or around highly flammable and insulating materials. And storing\u00a0batteries and devices in a cool, dry area away from combustible materials.<\/p>\n

Larger devices such as e-scooters should be kept in outside storage where possible, away from bedrooms and living spaces.<\/p>\n
