Toronto fire officials can’t confirm that an e-bike or e-bike batteries started the blaze, they said.
Four people, including two children, were taken to hospital following an apartment fire in Toronto’s St. James Town neighbourhood — and fire officials say e-bike batteries were involved.
Police responded to reports of a fire in an apartment complex near Ontario Street and St. James Avenue, not far from Bloor and Sherbourne, at about 3 a.m., they said on social media.
Similar battery fires have sent multiple people to hospital in recent months, and have increased significantly in recent years.
