The mum said she was 'disgusted and frightened'
Chloe Thomas, 22, was out shopping with her two-year-old daughter and son, who is ten-months-old, when she made a "frightening" discovery as she approached the trollies at the Stoke-on-Trent supermarket on November 3. Chloe, who lives in Staffordshire, found a blade, the same one used in utility knives, attached to the front hook of the trolley with a metal ring.
Chloe told BirminghamLive she feared a child could have ended up in hospital had she not spotted the pointed object. Chloe flagged up the incident with security at the Festival Way store and they announced they were going to do a "full search" on all of the store's other trolleys.READ MORE: Man fighting for his life after being hit by car
Chloe said: "I felt disgusted and frightened, not only for my children but for other children. Some parents don’t give it a thought and just put their children in the trolleys for a quick shop. "But that could instantly turn into a hospital trip with serious injuries. You can tell it was deliberate as well.A Morrison's spokesperson said: "It is incredibly irresponsible that someone has done this. After the store was made aware, the blade was removed immediately and we are being extra-vigilant on checking our trollies."
