WASHINGTON — The asphyxiation deaths of two boys prompted the government Monday to announce the recall of 1.8 million toy dart-gun sets.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission said a 9-year- old boy in Chicago and a 10- year-old boy in Milwaukee died after they chewed on the 1-inch, soft-plastic darts, which slipped into their throats. The small suction-cup part of the dart cut off their breathing.
The “Auto Fire” toy dart set was sold exclusively at Family Dollar stores from September 2005 through January 2009.
