A dog owner has been left devastated after a fire caused by an e-scooter claimed the life of his beloved pet. Kevin Record was awoken by Shogun in the early hours of the morning on Monday, April 17, to alert him to the blaze that would go on to tear his flat apart.
The 43-year-old found sparks coming from his e-scooter and within a matter of moments it burst in to flames, withthe fire spreading rapidly. Kevin managed to escape with his life but his dog tragically perished in the blaze, reports KentLive.
The fire caused life-changing burns to the right side of Kevin's body and the damage done to his home was irreversible, despite the best efforts of Kent Fire and Rescue Service, who sent four fire engines to the flat in the town of Sheerness.
