An electric-powered tricycle has burst into flames while parked outside Buckingham Palace, Britain’s The Independent reported.
Video posted on social media show firefighters tackling the blaze on Spur Road in central London at around 12.42pm on Saturday afternoon.
One person who posted footage of the incident on X reported hearing an “explosion” as the vehicle caught fire, The Independent said.
The charred remains of what appeared to be a tricycle and its frame were seen after the blaze was put out.
It’s thought the e-vehicle was being used to tow a rickshaw or a pedicab.
The Metropolitan Police said the fire was not believed to be suspicious or deliberate and the incident was over quickly.
The fire is believed to have started inside the e-vehicle’s battery.
