Understand how application security is evolving
We've all been there. Your spouse or loved one drives you to the breaking point, and you have no other choice than to swallow his cell phone.
A Blue Springs, Missouri woman was the latest victim of cell phone rage. She swallowed her boyfriend's mobile in mid-argument because "she didn't want the boyfriend to have it," according to a report in The Kansas City Star. The phone became lodged in the lady's throat, and she was rushed to the emergency room.
"Police responded to a call about a non-breathing person about 4:50 a.m. in the 3000 block of Southwest U.S. 40," the paper reported. "Police arrived and found that the 24-year-old woman was having trouble breathing. Her identity was not released."
The poor lass still had the phone wedged in her throat when she got to the hospital. ®
