Request

Please could you tell me for each of 2020, 2021, 2022 and to date in 2023:

1. How many fires suspected of being caused by faulty e-bike or scooter batteries have there been which have been responded to by your fire service

2. How many of these caused injuries?

3. How many of these cause death?

Decision

I can confirm that the information requested is held by Lincolnshire County Council. I have detailed below the information that is being released to you.

There is no specific category for either E-Bike or E-Scooter for Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue to record against.

Our Service has run a free text search that looks for those words and there are no matching incidents.
