Mysuru:07.09.2021
A four-year-old girl from a Hunsur village died after swallowing a one-rupee coin.
The girl died three days after the coin got stuck in the trachea followed by infection, at a hospital in Mysuru.
The girl’s uncle had given her a coin to buy balloon on Friday. She was playing with the coin, keeping it in her mouth. Accidentally, she swallowed it and she didn’t inform anyone in the family. The incident happened when she was in her grandmother’s home.
A day later, she developed breathing trouble and the family came to know that something was stuck in the windpipe. Doctors discovered that it was a coin after the girl told them in the hospital. However, it lead to infection and she died at the hospital.
Hunsur police said they have not received any complaint in this regard. TNN
