There’s no guarantee in life. At a moment everything seems perfect, while the other moment, the entire scene is upside down. What could seem to be completely safe, can turn lethal the very next moment, as is the case of these three unlucky people.
These three unlucky people got electrocuted by their phone’s charger.
Madison Coe, Texas
Madison Coe, a 14 years-old-Texas girl, was taking bath at her father’s home in New Mexico. After a certain time, her father knocked at the door to remind her to get out. Madison replied “Ok”. However, after about 20 minutes of her reply, her father again knocked the door but didn’t receive any reply. According to family and authorities, Madison died due to electrocution while using her cell phone in bathtub.
It is still unclear whether the girl plugged in her Samsung Edge Plus into the outlet or grabbed her while charging.
