Terrifying moment hoverboard battery explodes sparking huge blaze
Terrifying footage shows the moment a hoverboard battery exploded sparking a huge blaze which has left a mum fighting for her life in hospital.
Jacqueline Barrett, 54, has been left in a coma after the device burst into flames while it was charging just feet away from her bedroom on Saturday (13/11/21).
Shocking home security video shows the lithium ion battery spewing its molten contents across the downstairs living room, quickly setting the room alight.
Bedbound mum Jacqueline - who suffers from multiple sclerosis and heart problems - was rushed to hospital after the fire tore through her property in Smethwick, West Mids.
Her son Shane Johnson, 34, has today (Tue) released footage of the dramatic blast as a stark warning to others to take care when charging electrical items.
Shane, who is also his mum's carer, said: "It’s awful. My mum’s really ill in hospital. The fire and smoke damage to the house is just unbelievable.
“Mum called me moments after it happened, to say there’d been some sort of explosion.
"The first thing I did was call the fire service, then got in the car to get to her as quickly as possible.
“I called my dad and some friends. Some got there before me, and dad had tried to kick the door in to get to mum, but the heat from the fire was just too much.
“If anyone needs a warning about leaving things unattended when they’re charging, or plugged in when they’re fully charged, this is it. It could happen to anyone.”
