Family home wrecked by e-scooter fire 'in moments'

A family home was wrecked in a "matter of moments" in a fire caused by an electric scooter.

Chelsea Ann Buckler said the fire started in the hallway and "completely destroyed our home and everything inside it".

South Wales Fire and Rescue Service confirmed the fire on 9 January at Caerphilly Close, Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, was caused by a lithium-ion battery.

"Watching it all disappear is something that still doesn't feel real," said Buckler's post on a fundraising site.

"Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love, prayers, and support - it means more than we can ever put into words.

"With my five siblings and two parents, the road ahead feels overwhelming."
