They were trying to take the battery out. I'm not sure the battery started smoking. They got the battery out. They're going to be outside, but I guess they're concerned about the smell. They couldn't tell the smell was there before the phone battery incident or after and they just want somebody to come check out. The phone's no longer spoken and it's outside of the house.
