Default how to fix a cracked wooden frame for ottoman

hard to say without seeing the part. if possible I would wood glue it,
and drive some innoculous screws in from the side to clamp it. the glue
will provide the real strength, but leave in the screws anyway.

My wife bought a large ottoman (3'x3') from Overstock.com and it was
damaged in shipping. We emailed to see if they could send us a new one
but they don't have anymore. We really liked the ottoman and thought
that since it was just a small crack that wasn't very noticeable we
could deal with it. Well the crack has expanded and now it threatens
the integrity of the ottoman. I was wondering if I drilled a hole from
narrow edge of the wood on the bottom of the ottoman through the
cracked piece of wood and place a long screw through it would it
reinforce the wood or crack it further? Is there any way to salvage
this crack from expanding and falling apart or should I just send it
back?
