By Mary Wisniewski CHICAGO (Reuters) - An effort to retrieve a dropped cell phone ended in tragedy on Monday when a 26-year-old man died after falling into the icy Chicago River near downtown Chicago, and a 21-year-old woman who was with him was presumed dead after also going into the river, police said. Another man who was with the two young adults was pulled from the river by rescue workers and was hospitalized, Chicago Police Officer Mike Sullivan said. The 26-year-old man dropped his phone along the river walk north of Chicago's Loop and fell into the water when he went after it around midnight Monday, Sullivan said. Both men were pulled from the water by rescue workers, and the 26-year-old was pronounced dead at a hospital, according to Sullivan.
