4. Projectiles from helium tanks sold at Party City, Amazon can ‘strike users and bystanders’
Over 120,000 "Balloon Time Mini Helium Tanks" are being recalled because officials say "compressed helium from the tank can escape and cause the plastic cap to be released into the air unexpectedly, posing an injury hazard due to projectiles striking users and bystanders."
The helium tanks were sold at various stores nationwide, including Party City and online through Amazon. No injuries have been reported.
"Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled mini helium tanks," the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission wrote in a news release. "Consumers should point the tank away from themselves and others, and carefully remove the plastic safety seal and cap. Release all helium in a well-ventilated area and then clearly write their name, 'RECALLED' and destruction code on the front of the tank with a non-erasable marker. Consumers should register online at www.recallrtr.com/miniheliumtank and upload a photo of their product for a full refund. After receiving a refund, consumers should properly discard the product."
