Baby Shark toys sold by Amazon and Asda recalled after injuries to children

A warning has been issued over Baby Shark bath toys which have been recalled after injuries to children.

Customers are being urged to stop using the Baby Shark Sing & Swim toys, which have been sold by retailers including Amazon and Asda. Manufacturer Zuru "is aware of 12 reports of children falling or sitting onto the recalled full-size Baby Shark bath toy, resulting in impalement injuries, lacerations and puncture wounds, including to children’s genital, anorectal and facial areas".

Nine of the incidents required stitches or medical attention. The recall has come from the company and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, as many of the toys have been sold in America and Australia, from stores including Walmart, reports the Manchester Evening News.
