Apple Store in Amsterdam Evacuated After iPad Fire

Description

Dutch broadcaster AT5 as well as Dutch blog iCulture reported, an Apple store in Amsterdam’s Leidseplein square was briefly evacuated. This after an explosion believed to be the result of an overheating iPad battery. Gizmodo reports the fire was quickly put out by Apple staff. They put the device in a container with sand, firefighters were called, and the store was evacuated as a precautionary measure. However, according to local media, three people who were present during the incident had to be treated for respiratory issues. As 9to5Mac noted, apparently unrelated issues with iPhone batteries have resulted in “thermal events” in both Switzerland and Spain this year, with the incident in Zurich resulting in one person suffering minor burns and six others receiving treatment for what was likely smoke inhalation.
