Latest: Harvey Nichols window smashes and injures baby
A window pane at Bristol's new Harvey Nichols store in Cabot Circus has fallen out and injured a baby in a pushchair.
Eye-witnesses have told the Bristol Evening Post that a window panel above the glass front door in Quakers Friars fell out and glass covered a baby which was being pushed by its mother.
The child was taken away by ambulance.
Omar Ali, 23, a security guard at Hugo Boss, witnessed the incident.
He said: "The baby must have been less than a year old. There was glass all over the place, on its cheek and near its eyes.
"It's absolutely shocking. I can't believe it's happened on the second day of opening."

“If you are a cabot circus enthusiast:
I think that taking your kids to this shopping center is irresponsible. Not because of any technical door problems there may be at all.
Next time your in cabot circu"
look around. Do you really want to bring a child up as stupid as yoursel and the people around you?”
