Little Tikes toy workshops and trucks recalled
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Little Tikes Co. is recalling about 1.6 million toy workshops and trucks, after an 11-month-old boy got a plastic nail lodged in his throat.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission says the boy from Goose Creek, S.C., recovered after being hospitalized.
The recall includes a variety of toys manufactured by Little Tikes of Hudson, Ohio, in both the United States and China. They were sold with red or blue plastic toy nails that are about 3 ¼ inches long.
The recalled toys were sold on the Little Tikes Web site and by retailers around the country, including Toys “R’‘ Us, between March 1994 and June 2009.
