I was present, and able to dispose of the firey lipo with a shovel.
It was not charging, but I was handling it while covering it in new vinyl. I suspect the lipo was damaged from a small drop off my table last week.

Wow!!!!! Was it at all puffy beforehand?

No. It just blew and spewed hot black smoke and fire. Soot everywhere.
