A 69-year-old man died in a Brooklyn apartment fire caused by a faulty e-scooter lithium-ion battery. The fire erupted in a second-floor unit on Brighton 3rd Street, blocking the exit. Two others, a 32-year-old woman and a 35-year-old man, were hospitalized after attempting to extinguish the flames. Two children also managed to self-evacuate without injuries, according to FDNY officials.
