iPhone 6 'caught fire and burnt man's leg' after bending in his pocket...

An iPhone 6 "caught on fire" and burnt through its owner's jeans, it has been claimed.

According to an account on his blog, Phillip Lechter was visiting the University of Arizona when a rickshaw he was travelling on with his wife and seven-year-old son crashed.

The cart was rocked by the smash, bending Mr Lechter’s Apple phone – worth more than £500 – as he was thrown to the side of the vehicle.

He wrote: "I felt a burning sensation on my leg and then saw and smelled smoke from my pants.

"I surveyed the rickshaw quickly and could not find anything that could have set me on fire. Full story...
