A South Cheshire couple ended up in hospital after a fire in their home was sparked by a charging e-cigarette.
Jennifer Brown, 35, and Scot Washington, 34, suffered smoke inhalation after managing to extinguish the fire in an upstairs bedroom in their house in Crewe.
Electric Vehicle drivers in Cheshire are charging their cars dangerously due to lack of public infrastructure, a charity has claimed.
Consumer protection charity Electrical Safety First say 72% of EV users in the region admit they charge dangerously due to absence of local public charging points.
Cheshire East has seen a staggering 5,750% rise in electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles in seven years but has just 34 charging points, according to latest figures.
Statistics compiled by the BBC Shared Data Unit shows that 1,170 fully electric or plug in hybrid cars, LGVs and quadricycles were registered in the Cheshire East Council authority area in 2018.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
