A dog died after saving its owners life when an e-scooter caught fire and set light to his home. Kevin Record was asleep when his dog, Shogun, jumped onto his bed in the early hours.
The 43-year-old woke to find sparks coming from his e-scooter, which exploded and sent flames tearing through the flat. Kevin managed to escape with life-changing burns to the right side of his body.
But the hero dog died in the fire, reports KentLive. Kevin said: “I’m absolutely devastated by what’s happened, especially losing Shogun. He was everything to me and died saving my life. I can’t explain the speed of the fire. I had never seen anything like it. Within seconds, it was like a fireball that spread to everything in sight. It was like a grenade going off, just terrifying.”
