Coolibar recalls children's jackets, hooded sweatshirts

Minnesota-based Coolibar Inc. is recalling about 3,000 children's jackets and sweatshirts because the hoods are threaded with a drawstring that could pose a strangulation danger to children, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Friday.
No associated incidents or injuries have been reported.
The products were sold through Coolibar's catalogue and website and were priced between $25 and $40 U.S.
The sweatshirts were made in China.
Caregivers should remove the drawstrings from the garments or contact the company for a refund.
