Fire breaks out in Lavender flat; blaze linked to electric bicycle battery: SCDF

Firefighters from Kallang Fire Station responded to the fire at about 11.50pm on Monday. When they arrived at the scene, black smoke was coming out of the unit.

There were no occupants inside the flat at the time of the fire, and the firefighters “conducted forcible entry into the unit”.

“The fire … was extinguished by SCDF with a water jet. About 35 residents from the affected block had evacuated before SCDF’s arrival,” SCDF said.

SCDF reminded owners of personal mobility devices and power-assisted bicycles not to charge batteries for extended periods or overnight.

They should also refrain from buying or using non-original batteries, SCDF added.
