Crib Could Trap or Smother Your Child

Updated: Thu 6:56 PM, Apr 29, 2010

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says when the drop-side hardware on the "Graco" cribs breaks or fails, an infant or toddler can fall in the gap between the side and the mattress and get trapped.

The voluntary recall involves 217,000 cribs made by "Lajobi."

Of the 99 incidents reported so far, two children have been trapped in the cribs, and six have fallen, one of them receiving a mild concussion.

To see pictures of the cribs involved please go to: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml10/10212.html.

For more information on the recall involving Graco-branded drop side cribs, please visit the Kentucky Attorney General's KY Kids Alert section at www.ag.ky.gov.

Consumers can sign up to receive child product recall alerts through the Attorney General’s website at www.ag.ky.gov or call the CPSC’s Recall Hotline at 1-800-638-2772.
