Does anyone have more information on this incident?

One comment on the web site is pertinent:

It's far more likely that the laptop's battery or the power cord was the source of ignition and not the laptop itself..

We know that some DC power connectors regularly burn up because their construction is very meagre.

Fire officers have a track record of jumping to conclusions.
