No one hurt Made Apr 18, 2014, sent to the company May 12, 2014, published by CPSC May 27, 2014
The product, in the report: The only identifier on the toy of a black and yellow plastic tape measure from a child’s toolbox is that says “Caterpillar” on it. Made in China. No other markings. Tape would no longer retract into itself so it was a long plastic cord.
Found my 4 year old child asleep in his room with a child’s toy tape measure wrapped around his neck several times. The tape measure would no longer retract into itself and so it was a long plastic cord.
