Hallmark recalls wrapping paper with 'swastika' pattern

Wrapping paper that appears to contain a swastika pattern in the trim is being recalled from stores nationwide after an outraged California shopper noticed it.

Kansas City-based Hallmark Cards Inc., which licensed the wrapping paper, has asked retailers to remove the offending products.
