A Marks & Spencer’s customer has posted a horrific photo showing the top of her mum’s finger sliced off in a bizarre accident at one of the company’s stores.

Angela Hills and her mother, Mary, were at an M&S cafe in Handforth Dean, Cheshire when Mary caught her finger in a door and ‘sliced the end clean off.’

Angela says the door was not properly marked as a hazard, resulting in her mother’s horrific injury.

Graphic photos show how Mary’s finger has had several layers of skin stripped off, leaving it raw and bloodied.

Marks & Spencer have deemed the incident an ‘unfortunate accident’ and offered their condolences. They are also investigating.

However, Angela believes the store should have done more to prevent the situation.

She took to Facebook on Monday to warn other customers. 

Angela shared images of Mary’s injuries with the caption: ‘Warning! This happened to my mother at Handforth Dean M&S Cafe.

‘It was trapped in the door that wasn’t marked to be kept clear!! Sliced the end clean off.

‘M&S have offered her some flowers?! They haven’t even called her #dobetterMarksandSpencer.’

Angela’s post sparked a mixed reaction online. 

One social media user wrote: ‘That’s horrendous! How on earth could this happen?? Hope your mum is okay Ang.’

Another added: ‘Oh my god that’s horrific! Hope she’s okay.’

A third said: ‘No no no no no that is not acceptable, that is terrible!

‘Omg that could have been a toddlers arm fingers anything! I’d definitely seek legal advice! Flowers wtf are they going to do?’

However, other social media users were less sympathetic, with one writing: ‘Ah panic panic aaahh. Doors exist everywhere. 

‘They all open and close. It’s just common sense not to put your fingers in between a door and the frame when its closing.’

Another added: ‘So, she stuck her fingers into a staff door and got an injury? She’s the only one that got that injury, you’re just compensation seeking.’

Marks and Spencer said the incident at their Handforth Dean store in Cheshire (above) was an ‘unfortunate accident’ and has been ‘thoroughly investigated’

A third commented: ‘Why would she open that door? Is this the first time your mum has seen a door and doesn’t know how they work?’

Marks & Spencer expressed concern for Mary and said they were looking into the incident.

A Marks & Spencer spokesman said: ‘The safety of our customers and colleagues is always our highest priority and we have thoroughly investigated the incident that took place at our Handforth store in October.

‘This was an unfortunate accident and we’ve been in regular contact with Mrs Holmes and wish her a speedy recovery.’
