In Bangkok, a student, who was so preoccupied with using her smartphone, fell onto the railway in front of an approaching train at BTS Krung Thonburi this morning, June 25.

One witness said the teen was so busy fiddling with her phone that she walked straight towards the tracks and fell.

Fortunately, the girl didn’t obtain major injuries from the fall – aside from a fractured arm, as Skytrain staff performed first aid on her. As for her iPhone, a photo of it lying on the side tracks was captured by a passenger.
