CPSC, Kids "R" Us and Babies "R" Us Announce Recall of Children's Cargo Pants
The hazard
The toggle on the pockets of the pants can break off, posing a choking hazard to young children.
Incidents reported: Kids "R" Us has received one report of a 9-month old boy, who began to choke on a toggle that he removed from the pants. The toggle was dislodged.
What to do now
Consumers should immediately remove and discard the two toggles on the leg pockets. The pants then can be worn without the toggle.
