Incident: I was in a movie theater when my purse, which was sitting on the chair next to my leg, burst into huge flames. In the dark theater, I couldn't tell if my clothes were on fire or not. The woman next to me (and also next to my purse, on the other side), started screaming. The man seated on her other side started screaming, too. I threw a glass of water on the purse and threw the purse on the ground, but it was still on fire. The woman and man kept screaming. I grabbed a second glass of water and threw it on the purse. This put out the flames. Theater management stopped the movie and came to investigate if they needed to bring in a fire extinguisher. They offered refunds to moviegoers because the smell was so strong and terrible. It turned out my portable phone charger had exploded/burst into flames inside my purse while charging my phone. My purse was open, so there was ventilation it was not zipped closed.
