"It was already popped. I didn’t see it happen, but I mean, it was already fried. You can see flame damage," he told the television station.

Colon said he was thankful for pulling out the AirPod as soon as he did, and is concerned it might happen to other AirPod owners.

"I don't know what would’ve happened to my ear. But I’m sure since it hangs down, it could’ve been [my] ear lobe. My ear lobes could've been burnt," he said.

An Apple spokesperson told the television station it takes the claim seriously and will investigate. Mashable has also reached out to the company for comment.
