Recalls Boo Pumpkins Because Of Dangerous Small Parts WASHINGTON, DC -- Easy Aces, Inc. of Providence, RI is recalling 40,000 Halloween novelty items called "Boo Pumpkin" because two components (a balloon and a squeaker) could become detached and pose a fatal choking hazard to young children. This recall is being announced in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The pumpkin-shaped item is approximately two inches tall.

Consumers are urged to take these toys away from young children and return them to the retailer where purchased for a refund of the purchase price.
