Battery in Kid's Book Causes Fire in Family's Minivan
August 29, 2024
Pressly and Destiny Williams say they just got back from church with their toddler when a neighbor saw smoke coming from their minivan. A battery in "JJ's Potty Time" somehow ignited under the car seat. The book's publisher says "Our electronic books, which have sold millions of units without incident, use alkaline batteries, not lithium-ion batteries as reported. We are relieved that no one was injured, and are working closely with local officials and experts to determine the cause of this incident."
