A Blue Springs woman was taken to a hospital emergency room early today after a cell phone became lodged in her throat. The woman was in an argument with a boyfriend when the incident occurred, said Sgt. Steve Decker of the Blue Springs Police Department. Decker said police were told that the woman tried to swallow the telephone because she didn't want the boyfriend to have it. However the case is under investigation. Police responded to a call about a non-breathing person about 4:50 a.m. in the 3000 block of Southwest U.S. 40, Decker said. Police arrived and found that the 24-year-old woman was having trouble breathing. Her identity was not released. The woman was taken to the emergency room at St. Mary's Hospital in Blue Springs. She still had the telephone in her throat upon arrival at the hospital, Decker said. A condition report was not available

Just because something sounds too insane to be true doesn't necessarily mean it isn't. :-/

Ah, yes, orifice #1.

There are several places in the human body where cellphones may be placed.

My instict was to think she was using it in a movie theater, and someone got angry.

[EGPWS]

What, she's too lazy to hold it up to her chin?

You know there is a call log on most phones. Maybe there are numerous calls from an ex.

Sometimes that's the only way to stop the overage charges.
