Can you hear me now?

From the Kansas City Star:

A Blue Springs woman was taken to the emergency room early Friday with a cell phone lodged in her throat.

Blue Springs Police Sgt. Steve Decker said the woman apparently tried to swallow the telephone because she didn’t want her boyfriend to have it. Decker said no crime was committed.

After police responded to a call about the incident, the 24-year-old woman was taken to the emergency room at St. Mary’s Hospital. Her condition was not released, but she was expected to recover, Decker said.
