Sounds like the critically injured child was in the basement at the time of the fire; wondering if there is a connection. It would be informative to read updates. Tragic event.

Very Tragic.

If/when I have any updates, I will post them here.

Poor kids, poor homeowner. I hope we hear more about what kind of battery it was. Cell phone? Power tool? Ebike? Power Wall?

Looks like the culprit might be an e-bike.
