French woman electrocuted while charging phone near bath

A pregnant woman in France has died after being electrocuted by her phone, which she was charging as she took a bath, authorities say.

The 21-year-old woman was just two weeks away from giving birth when she died on New Year's Eve in the town of Saint-Martin-d'Hères near Grenoble, France.

Her husband found her submerged in the water and unconscious on Sunday.

The man had left the home without his keys while his wife was in the bath, and had to break through his front door when she didn't answer his knocks or phone calls upon his return.

The woman, who was eight-and-a-half months pregnant, suffered cardiac arrest while in the tub, according to The Local.

Her husband called emergency services, but medics were unable to save the woman or her baby.

The woman and her husband have not been publicly named.

He should have thought about his keys before he plugged the phone in. Hmmm.... maybe he did?

This is not a joke ... like 3 months ago a 11 yr old girl died from same thing... it's not funny and nothing to crack jokes about stupid people... it's sad! They prob plug the phone in to take a bath and the phone prob falls in bath at some point or they go to read a text and don't realize dangers ....parents take note... don't let your kids take phone in bathroom with them

Or, he murdered her by electrocution. He stated he tried calling. Murder is high cause of death for pregnant women. Maybe I watch too much ID channel.
