Over 233,000 Peg Perego strollers have been recalled after they were deemed a strangulation risk.

The Legal Examiner said that the same thing nearly happened to a young girl in New York City two years later.
The recall involves two older model strollers from the company: the Venezia and the Pliko P3.
Both strollers were sold up until 2010, CNN reported, and officials said that any parents with them should immediately stop using them and contact the company
