Suppose the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has been investigating heroin drug dealer Carter, and DEA Agent x has developed probable cause to believe that Carter's cell phone, 309-683-1234, contains data and related evidence of Carter's drug dealing, but Agent x has only an arrest warrant for Carter. Today Agent x finds Carter in a public park commonly used for drug trafficking. When Carter observes Agent x approach him, Carter immediately drops his cell phone and is about to step on it in an attempt to destroy his cell phone. Seeing this is about to happen, Agent x leaps at Carter and successfully prevents Carter from crushing his cell phone. Agent x then seizes Carter's cell phone.
True or false: Presuming Agent x lawfully seized the cell phone to prevent its imminent destruction, Agent x still needs to obtain a search warrant to search the contents of Carter's cell phone.
A. True.
B. False.
