Franklin pointed to the injuries on his arm and eyes, and he was still vividly remembering what happened on August 15, 2019. At that time, he was listening to music on his iPhone 6, which was purchased in 2018. Suddenly the music paused, and Franklin took the phone to check it out, and the phone exploded. “In an attempt to mitigate his fall, Mr. Franklin instinctively tried to brace himself with his right hand. When Mr. Franklin fell to the ground, he immediately felt a burning pain in his eyes and right wrist. Mr. Franklin suffered injuries to his eyes and wrist as a result of this incident, and these injuries continue to plague Mr. Franklin to this day.”
