Schoolgirl stuck in drain after phone falls in 'was just laughing and laughing'

A schoolgirl who had to be rescued by firefighters after getting stuck in a storm drain trying to retrieve her mobile phone has said: "Nobody said don't do it."

Ella Birchenough, 16, tried to fish her two-week-old iPhone 5s from the drain using her feet after it slipped from her grasp in Eaves Road, Dover, Kent.
