The nation's hoverboard frenzy -- foretold 30 years ago by a board-riding McFly in the movie "Back to the Future" -- continued to go up in flames Tuesday, as retailers ditched the devices amid reports of dangerous malfunctions, the latest in East Contra Costa County. On Monday, a self-balancing scooter, or hoverboard, bought as a Christmas gift burst into flames at a Brentwood home with a 15-year-old girl aboard.
