Basically, she bought a red massage gun from the online shopping platform Lazada, and was probably hoping to get a good massage session out of it.
However, when she charged the product, it suddenly caught fire and burnt the surrounding area. In the pictures below, you can see black scorch marks on her table, shelf and wood floor.
Thankfully, she put the fire out quickly, or the fire could have spread to other areas of the house.
