'I dread to think what would have happened if we didn’t get back when we did': Family grateful for lives after exploding vape set home alight
“I dread to think what would have happened if we didn’t get back to the house when we did, my wife was upstairs in the next room asleep, The fire could have easily spread,” he continued.
Responding to the incident, Nicole Mordecai, who leads a Prevention and Education team for Tyne and Wear Fire Service said: “Vapes have lithium ion batteries inside them which can be extremely volatile making them prone to overheating and causing fires in the home. “Thankfully Craig’s daughter closed the door to her bedroom that afternoon, otherwise the situation could have been much worse.
“Please check you have working smoke alarms in your property and get in touch if you need new ones fitted, they are the first line of response we have to a fire in the home and they’ve saved countless lives so we want everyone to have them in their homes.
