Toddler, 2, fighting for his life after swallowing battery that burst inside him

A toddler, aged two, is fighting for his life after swallowing a battery which has caused burning to his oesophagus and a lung infection.

Dylan Alejandro was taken by his mum to hospital in Cananea, in the state of Sonora in north west Mexico, after having difficulty breathing and it was there that they found he had swallowed a battery, on October 23.

He was moved from the local hospital to a larger centre in Hermosillo and he has been in intensive care now for 16 days.
