| Quote: BLUE SPRINGS, Mo. Dec 26, 2005 — A woman who police thought deliberately tried to swallow her cell phone during an argument with her boyfriend was apparently the victim of an assault instead, authorities said. Police have a suspect in the bizarre incident that sent the 24-year-old woman to the hospital last week, Sgt. Allen Kintz said. Police would not say whether the boyfriend was the suspect and would not explain exactly what they believe happened. "It appears she didn't voluntarily swallow this phone," Kintz said. "It's not quite the way it was first portrayed." Early Friday, police responded to a call from a Blue Springs man who said his girlfriend was having trouble breathing. Police arrived to find a woman with a cell phone lodged in her throat. Police were initially told the boyfriend wanted the phone and the woman tried to swallow it so that he could not get it.

It's like the "I ran into the door/fell of the stairs" of the 21st century.
