VIDEOS: A fire caused by lithium batteries destroyed a house in Wisconsin on Thursday. The Kenosha County home is now a pile of rubble. Kansasville fire officials say flames already engulfed the structure by the time rescue crews arrived. No one was inside at the time, but multiple pets are believed to have died. Crews used more than 100,000 gallons of water to put out the flames. The fire chief says the fire was caused by lithium-ion batteries that were charging. โLithium-ion batteries were reportedly to power a 6-foot drone that the homeowner had just recently purchased, and he plugged the charger in probably three hours or so before the fire was reported,โ Kansasville Chief Ron Molnar said.
