This waste needed to be emptied by our firefighters after it caught alight in a bin lorry in #Woolwich 🔥 The cause? A crushed lithium battery which exploded 🔋 Please don't bin your batteries and electrical products - make sure to always recycle batteries separately ♻️

Never chuck loose batteries in your rubbish. Even small batteries could cause fires when crushed. Always recycle batteries separately using a battery recycling service @recycleelectric @NewhamLondon

Earlier the Commissioner met officers and staff who, despite losing their police station, kit and belongings to fire, have continued working tirelessly to keep people in Newham safe. He also visited Forest Gate to see the damage and thank fire crews for their incredible efforts.
