CPSC, Meijer Announce Recall of Children's Sweatshirts with Drawstring Hoods

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The sweatshirts have drawstrings in the hood. Children can get entangled and strangle in the drawstrings, that can catch on playground equipment, fences or tree branches.

What to do

Consumers can return the sweatshirts to Meijer retailers for a full refund, or consumers can remove the drawstrings to eliminate the hazard.
