Wichita Fire Battalion Chief Lane Pearman says, “these types of fires involving electric type vehicles they are fairly difficult, because of that chain reaction that causes those batteries to continuously heat up to the point to where they actually ignite and the there’s only two ways that fire’s going to go out. It either consumes everything it’s going to consume, or we provide enough water to reduce the temperature of those batteries below that critical temperature threshold.”
