A recall of about 45,000 hooded sweatshirts with drawstrings was announced Wednesday by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The recall involves children's fleece hooded sweatshirts, sizes 8 to 12, imported by Seena International. The words BKLYN Xpress and Brooklyn Xpress are embroidered on the shirts. Each tag on each recalled garment has one of the following style numbers: BXFL72B, BXFL73B, BXFL74B, BXFL75B, BXFL77B or BXFL80B.
The shirts were sold at clothing stores across the U.S. from September 2006 through December 2006 for about $25.
Consumers should remove the drawstring from the shirt.
