“We responded to a house fire in May that was caused by a damaged lithium-ion battery. While the home was significantly damaged, their two dogs and cat escaped the home uninjured through a dog door,” the Tulsa Fire Department captioned the video.

Little called lithium-ion battery fires a “critical issue that has been affecting fire departments across the United States.”

He went on telling the public about lithium-ion batteries, including storing them out of reach of children and pets.
