(Krona) – The Mountain View Ministry of Fire Department says that a drone was left on the passenger’s seat for the Beck App truck to a fire on Friday afternoon, a man was wounded and caused thousands of dollars damage.
MVFD said that its sets responded to the accident in the 1400 Wildrose Way mass at 1:37 pm just minutes after alerting it and then quickly kidnapped the interior car fire.
The paramedic said that a man was treated with slight burns at the scene, but he refused more care in a local hospital.
Mountain View Fire confirmed that the fire did not spread to nearby housing.
“The cause of the fire was determined to be linked to the Lithium -Ion battery charging system by drone,” MVFD said in a press release.
The damage to the car and drone is estimated at $ 10,000.
Mountain View Fire uses the accident to remind others to take the following safety precautions when charging Li -Ion batteries:
• Buy and use the devices listed by the qualified test laboratory.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Use the battery designed for the device only.
• Do not use post -sales batteries or public chargers.
• Just use the charging wire that came with the device.
• Do not continue to charge the device or the device battery after fully charged it.
Store batteries away from anything that can shoot.
• Do not receive a device overnight.
• Do not charge a device near the exits.
