SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — San Diego Fire-Rescue crews responded to reports of a fire in downtown San Diego and found smoke coming from electric vehicle battery charging stations, according to the department.
When crews arrived at a residential building on G Street, they found smoke coming from a unit on the 4th floor but no fire.
The source of the smoke was a few lithium-ion battery charging stations for electric vehicles, the department said.
The building's fire suppression sprinkler system wasn't triggered, and no one was injured.
G Street was temporarily shut down between 13th Street and 15th Street, and residents were evacuated while fire crews handled venting the building.
