But the 21-year-old refused to accept the phone was gone and decided it would be a good idea to stick his head down the drain to retrieve it and call police.
It was not a good idea. He became stuck fast – and the alarm was raised only after he had been in there screaming for about 40 minutes.
‘I was concerned but I was also laughing – it was funny!’ said Brianna Mooney, 16, who raised the alarm.
Mr Medeiros was freed by firefighters, who spent hours trying to pull him out.
He said he had been beaten and kicked by four men.
‘My head was split open and I was bleeding,’ he added.
‘I felt blood from my head and I started shaking, so I went for my cell.’
Photos of his predicament were made public by police in Ceres, California.
‘I don’t understand why they would sit and take pictures,’ said Mr Medeiros. ‘That kind of p****s me off.’
