13-Year-Old Girl Sustains Serious Burns From Cell Phone
opposingviews.com
An Illinois teenager has suffered second-degree burns on her neck after she used a cell phone while it was charging. Her mother is now warning others about phone safety.
Jackie Fedro of Highland Park, Illinois, said she bought the T-Mobile phone for her 13-year-old daughter, Gabbie, for Christmas, BuzzFeed News reported. Gabbie is reportedly very active in sports and always on the go, so Fedro thought the phone would help her stay in contact with her parents during her "crazy practice schedule."
A week after Gabbie received the phone, Fedro heard her daughter screaming in her room.
"She came running downstairs after it [happened] grabbing her neck," Fedro said, according to BuzzFeed News. "She was in so much pain she was screaming hysterically."
The teen had reportedly been using the phone while it was plugged into a wall charger. An electric current from the phone had traveled through the metal necklace she was wearing and burned her neck.
"She suffered painful second-degree burns and now will have a scar all the way around her neck," Fedro said.
