   A 69-year-old man was killed when a blaze sparked by a lithium-ion battery   
   trapped him inside a Brooklyn apartment Wednesday morning, according to   
   the FDNY.   
      
   The elderly man died and two others were injured in the 3:40 a.m. fire   
   that broke out inside the second-floor apartment on Brighton 3rd Street   
   near Brightwater Court in Brighton Beach, where the faulty battery   
   powering a scooter burst into flames, officials said.   
      
   The intense flames and heat from the device blocked the exit of his unit   
   in the building, according to FDNY Chief Fire Marshal Daniel Flynn.
