Help Tab2 got very hot , now won't start

[wayne percifield]

I plugged my tab 2 into a wall outlet, using the factory supplied charger, and the back top/left portion of the tablet got very hot. It was plugged in for about 2 or 3 hours.

When I unplugged it, it would not start.

Any thoughts?

Is there a chance it is "fried"

Is there a chance the charger failed?

Thanks in advance.
