PSP catches fire in pocket of young boy

I have at one time asked myself about the dangers of carrying a handheld with you in your pocket and if it could catch on fire, and apparently, I just got my answer

 

Harold Clay, from Warner Middle School in Farmington Hills, Michigan got second degree burns on his leg to his Sony PSP catching on fire in his pocket. It seems the handheld’s battery overheated causing it to ignite, which isn’t a preposterous assumption considering the PSP battery has been known to have problems in the past. And no one actually knows if he had a genuine Sony battery, or a third party one. In any case, from now on try not to keep the PSP on you, if you can.

 

The ironic part of the story is that the boy had Burnout in his PSP when it all happened…
