Teenage girl treated for burns after iPhone 5c in her back pocket catches fire while she was in class

A teenager from Maine, US, suffered second-degree burns when her iPhone caught fire in her pocket while she was at school.
The girl, who has not been named, was burned on the thigh and back when her iPhone 5C started smouldering in her back pocket.
Classmates heard a pop and saw smoke billowing around the 14-year-old, who had to remove her pants in class to get away from the fire.
The girl, who has not been named, had just arrived for her French class at a Kennebunk middle school.
‘She knew right away something was wrong and, in a panic, knew her pants were on fire caused by the cell phone,’ principal Jeff Rodman told the Morning Sentinel.
