Potential E-Cig Lawsuit Cases Arise From E-Cigarette Explosion That Leaves Phoenix Man Severely Burned
June 08, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on two different e-cigarette explosions in which property was damaged and injury was caused. An Arizona TV news outlet, ABC 15, reported on the case of a man who ended up calling his young daughter from his car, screaming because he was on fire. His e-cigarette which was in his pocket had exploded while he was driving down the road. In the process of trying to put out the spreading fire, he was burned extensively on his leg and hand, requiring him to be sent to the hospital for treatment. His family is very upset and reached out via the news to inform consumers of the serious risks associated with using e-cigarettes, according to their experience. His wife noted at least 20 of their friends utilize the devices and expressed concern that they, or those they love, may be next to be injured. They hope that by sharing their pain, others will make careful decisions about e-cigarette use.
The same TV news station also covered a woman’s report of an e-cigarette explosion which ultimately caused, according to fire department estimates, over $100,000 in damage to her home. Phoenix Fire Department has seen an increasing number of e-cigarette-related fires and is warning the public to be aware of the possible dangers from the devices. In the case of the woman’s home, the fire department investigation found that the e-cigarette battery cartridge overheated in the process of charging, which led to the fire.
