A Queens woman’s 2019 Apple MacBook Pro burst into flames while she was doing her taxes, sparking a fire that “destroyed” her apartment, according to court papers.
Linda Nahum, of Woodside, was working on the 15-inch laptop in bed late at night in July 2020 when she felt a burning sensation on her lap, her attorney, Anna Higgins, told The Post.Nahum, 71, who lives alone, ran to the kitchen to get water to douse the flames, but the blaze only spread, so she called 911 and rushed out of the building, wearing only her pajamas, according to her attorney.
The battery in Nahum’s laptop spontaneously combusted, setting her apartment on fire, according to the lawsuit.Eventually, the blaze was put out, leaving the entire apartment soaked in water and soot.She returned home the next day to find her apartment padlocked by fire officials, who deemed it a safety hazard, according to her attorney.
“Having little living family left, she found solace, comfort, and a unique sense of connection to her family from her belonging within her home and her personal items,” Higgins said. “The loss she has endured is immense and immeasurable.”
