Hardwarezone Forum, 21 Jan 2013
"some dude was carrying a backpack when some smoke was seen emitted from it and he knew about it also... then the gentleman took the fire extinguisher out from the sides and sprayed on it and it did stop the flumes or sorta....
He apologised and mentioned " sorry...my battery....
however not long later, more smoke was seen coming out and later the backpack was into flames..in the train. Of course during the ride,emergency stop was pressed,ppl seen stomping,taking pics,looking afraid...."
