WASHINGTON (AP) - The government is announcing a recall of some
1.2 million high chairs, saying they pose a fall hazard to
children.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the voluntary
recall Thursday involving the product made by Graco Children's
Products, Inc., of Atlanta.
The regulatory agency said "screws holding the front legs of
the high chair can loosen and fall out" and said cracking plastic
brackets can cause the high chair to "tip over unexpectedly."
These tip-overs resulted in 24 reports of injuries including bumps
and bruises to the head, a hairline fracture to the arm and cuts,
bumps and bruises and scratches to the body."
