Doctors at a hospital in Brazil alerted police after finding 50 sewing needles inside a two-year-old boy. He was in serious condition after being admitted to the intensive care unit of the Barreiras hospital in the state of Bahia. He was brought in by his family after vomiting and experiencing stomach pains. An X-ray revealed the 50 needles, one of which had perforated a lung, requiring a tube to be inserted to remove air from the thoracic cage. Doctors do not believe the boy swallowed the needles
