Over the weekend, there was an e-bike battery explosion in the Barrio Logan area. According to ABC San Diego News Channel 10, the incident happened at an apartment complex on the 2900 block of Boston Avenue at about 6:00 a.m. on Sunday. Initial reports indicate that a couple had an e-bike charging in their living room when it ignited and caught on fire. 

The man reportedly tried to put the fire out by pouring water on it, at which point, the battery exploded. When first responders arrived on the scene, he had to be rushed to the UCSD Burn Center for treatment of burn injuries to his arms and legs. The woman was able to escape from the apartment and was helped by neighbors. The apartment was apparently destroyed by the explosion and fire.
