One person has died and another was seriously injured in a house blaze sparked by an e-bike battery, Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS) has said.
MFRS released a public statement to say they were called to a serious fire at Daisy Mews, Litherland, at 3am on Sunday, January 8. Four fire engines arrived at the scene eight minutes later and found a semi-detached home well alight on the ground floor.
Four firefighters entered the property wearing breathing apparatus and used hose reel jets to extinguish the fire while also searching for occupants. Two people were found in the home and carried out of the property by firefighters.
