Girl burned when cell phone catches fire

Thursday, July 1, 2004 Posted: 10:15 PM EDT (0215 GMT)

A cell phone and jeans pocket are charred after the phone suddenly caught fire Thursday.

(CNN) -- A 16-year-old California girl suffered second degree burns Thursday when her cell phone caught fire in her back pocket, according to the Ontario Fire Department.

The teenager was volunteering at an Ontario youth recreation center when witnesses heard a loud "whooshing" sound, said Frank Huddleston, a fire department investigator.

Huddleston said the victim didn't even know what was happening, and witnesses said they thought it was fireworks.

Witness then saw her pocket explode with smoke and fire, he said.

The girl was in a kitchen and near a pot of water, so the flames were quickly extinguished, Huddleston said.

The victim was transported to Chino Valley Medical Center where she was treated and released with small second-degree burns to her right buttock.

The phone is a Verizon Kyocera, but because of damage investigators could not tell the model number.

Ontario is east of Los Angeles near San Bernardino.

First you shouldn't use your cell phone near the pumps at the gas station, now you can't put them in your back pockets because of gascious emanations can ignite.


Did I even spell that right?

Look, it was a play on the "careful where you put your cell phone" topic of a few days ago, about low sperm counts.

Re: Be EVEN CAREFULLER where you put your cellphone

cellphones wont ignite at gas pumps, there are no actual sparks going through a cell phone at all, justlike cigaraettes, you can try all day, but a cigerette wont like gasoline on fire, trust me i've tried.

Doesn't matter how good your sperm count is,you aren't going to get lucky if she's got third degree burns on her butt....

Would that be a Weapon of Ass Destruction?

It wasn't the phone, it was the battery. Verizon is having problems with people counterfitting the batteries for their phones. They released a list of which batteries to look out for.

And yea, that must have hurt. :22yikes:
