An e-bike shop in Queens, New York, was consumed by “a wall of flames” after a lithium-ion battery exploded, the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) said. Sped-up video released by the FDNY shows smoke forming around the battery, before the device eventually explodes and sets the King Electronic Hub store on fire. The FDNY said that they received a first call at 9:43 pm, approximately one minute after the incident occurred, from an upstairs tenant who “heard three loud pops and smelled the smoke”. They said that the store was closed at the time of the fire and that no member of the public was harmed. Local media reported that one firefighter was injured while on duty, and at least two-dozen e-bikes were damaged.
