After the terrible event at an Apple Store in Amsterdam where a robbery led to the taking of a hostage and a police movement to arrest the criminal. Apple gave its statement of facts praise to the Dutch authorities, staff and customers concerned.

Yesterday it was reported an assault on an Apple Store in the Netherlands. The foray of a man in camouflage and a balaclava into the Apple Store in Amsterdam’s Leidseplein has forced police to cordon off the entire place to track the movements of a thief who there was no escape.

The situation that started with a robbery ended with the detention of a person, a kidnapping that lasted a few hours and ended in the release of the hostage and the arrest of the offender which demanded 200 million dollars in cryptocurrencies and a safe exit from the Apple Store.

The stop could be reached due to a small distraction that the kidnapper had while drinking water, the hostage took the opportunity to try to escape and it was then that before the thief tried to flee, the police hit him with a car to hold it down, examine it with a robot to reign bombs and finally stop that.
