A six year-old girl was lucky to escape serious injury after one of her Crocs shoes got trapped in an escalator at a Primark store, her mum says. Emma Harris, 41, was shopping with her daughter at the Trafford Centre in June.
She said they took the escalator up to the children's department when her daughter suddenly let out a 'panicked' shriek as the mechanical steps neared the top. Emma said she heard the sound of the metal 'grabbing' at the shoe - and managed to pull at her daughter's right leg
"I pulled her leg and the back of the Croc snapped as the escalator was pulling the shoe in," said Emma, a mum-of-two from Salford. "Her foot came out of the back because the rubber snapped, thankfully.

"The escalator pulled her shoe and within seconds, it was severed through. Had she not have yelled out and been stood next to me, and had the shoe not snapped, freeing her foot, the injury could have been life-changing. If I had not have pulled her leg, I think it would have caused some really bad damage to her foot."
Emma, who said her daughter was given immediate first aid by Primark staff in the store, shared an image of the severed Croc after the incident. It shows a slice mark along the side and a severed sole.
But she said that although she escaped unhurt, her daughter has been left 'petrified' of escalators ever since. "She pulls me backwards out of stores if she sees escalators in them," said Emma, who revealed that thankfully, her daughter suffered only a reddening to her foot, with no cut.
She said she has autism and regularly wears Crocs because she doesn't like the feeling of her feet being restricted or enclosed in
