A fire in Jalan Bukit Merah, likely to have started from the battery pack of a power-assisted bicycle (PAB), caused damage to three market stalls on March 19. There were no reported injuries, according to a Facebook post by the Singapore Civil Defence Force. SCDF said that they were alerted to a fire at Block 112 Jalan Bukit Merah, which is a market and food centre. The fire involved a PAB parked near a market stall on the first floor, they added, and was extinguished by firefighters from the Central Fire Station. A preliminary investigation indicated that the fire had likely originated from the battery pack of the PAB, said SCDF. The incident took place about three hours after a similar one involving a charging personal mobility aid that caught fire in a flat in Clementi, and resulted in three people being taken to hospital.
