Incredible video obtained by the ABC7 I-Team shows a hoverboard fire in north suburban Highland Park - a fire that did extensive damage to a home there.
Testing is underway in the Chicago area to determine the safety of hoverboards following dozens of reports that the self-balancing scooters burst into flames.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission is calling hoverboards an "imminent hazard."
