On the evening of May 23, 2025, a parked e-bike unexpectedly caught fire beneath Eastbrook @ Canberra Blk 105, located between Sheng Siong and the nearby coffeeshop. The incident occurred at approximately 5:30 PM, drawing the attention of passersby and emergency responders alike.
As flames engulfed the vehicle, swift action was taken—likely by the fire brigade or police—to move the burning e-bike onto a nearby grass patch, a crucial step to prevent the fire from spreading to surrounding property or people. It took approximately 45 minutes for firefighters to fully extinguish the blaze. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and the professionalism and protective gear of the firefighters, including helmets and facemasks, ensured their safety during the operation.
This event is a stark reminder of how sudden and unpredictable fires can be, especially with electric mobility devices like e-bikes, which are becoming increasingly common in our neighborhoods.
