A mum and dad have been left angry after a rusty retractable knife fell out of one of the boxes containing a Christmas present for their two-year-old daughter. Martin Sexton and fiancée Kelly Francis were unwrapping presents with their two young children when the knife fell out of the box.
Martin said he managed to grab it before daughter Maggie, two, put it in her mouth. Martin, 36, and Kelly, 31, then spent Christmas Day trying to contact the vendor, who has promised to investigate, reports NorthWalesLive.
Martin, originally from Caernarfon, Gwynedd, said: “It could have been horrific. As both our children are autistic, we have to be particularly vigilant when opening boxes that contain plastic ties. Parents with more developed children might have just let them get on with opening their own presents.”
