Alpha Industries Recalls about 900 Children's Hooded Sweatshirts with Drawstrings.
The hooded sweatshirts have drawstrings through the hoods which can pose a strangulation or entrapment hazard to children.
This recall involves children's hooded, zippered sweatshirts with drawstrings through the hood.
The cotton sweatshirts are olive green with an eagle on the front and the words "Hero by Choice" and "Alpha."
They were sold in sizes 2T, 3T, 4T, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10/12.
"Alpha Industries" and "RN#35569" are printed on a label sewn into the neck of the sweatshirts.
They were sold at department stores and juvenile product stores nationwide from August 2009 through February 2010 for between $28 and $42.
Consumers should immediately remove the drawstrings from the hoods of the sweatshirts to eliminate the hazard or return them to the place of purchase or Alpha Industries for a full refund.
