The manager of a fashion store where a young boy died when a mirror fell on him has given evidence at Oxford Coroner's Court.
Andrew Morgan said the fixtures and fittings of the Hugo Boss store were the responsibility of the contracted shop fitters and he had not had any concerns about the safety of the mirror.
Four-year-old Austen Harrison died in hospital four days after the three-section mirror collapsed on top of him in June 2013.
Mr Morgan said he received basic health and safety training when he was appointed manager of a new Hugo Boss pop-up store in Bicester Village.
He said he remembered the mirror arriving in the store but could not remember when.

It was installed by shop fitters but then moved to a different location in the fitting room area while he was away.
Mr Morgan said he carried out daily health and safety checks in the store and had no reason to doubt that the mirror had been properly installed by professional shop fitters.
The inquest is due to continue this afternoon and conclude tomorrow.
