                 Baby Suffocates On Burger King Pokemon Toy

                 Toy Was Found Over Child's Nose And Mouth

                 INDIANAPOLIS, Updated 4:30 p.m. EST January 26, 2000 --
A
                 4-month-old boy suffocated in his crib on a Burger King
Pokemon ball --
                 the subject of a nationwide recall after a similar
death last month,
                 WCCO-TV reported Wednesday.

                 Zachary Jones was found dead Tuesday
                 of what an autopsy determined was
                 asphyxiation, Deputy Police Chief Lana
                 Schneider of suburban Lawrence, Ind.,
                 said.

                 The toy, a hollow plastic ball that opens
                 clamshell-style, had been left in Zachary's
                 crib by his stepgrandmother. She came
                 back later to find him with half the ball
                 covering his nose and mouth, authorities
                 said.

                 "A 4-month-old baby cannot move things from their face,
and basically it
                 suffocated," Schneider said.

                 The balls, given away by Burger King in children's
meals, measure about
                 3 inches in diameter and contain a Pokemon toy.

                 Burger King recalled millions of them Dec. 27, after
the Dec. 11
                 suffocation death of a Sonora, Calif., girl found in
her playpen with half a
                 ball over her nose and mouth.

                                          Schneider said Zachary's
family knew
                                          nothing of the recall.

                                          Burger King spokesman Charles
                                          Nicolas said the Miami-based
restaurant
                                          chain is investigating.
