The Apple Store in Amsterdam was temporarily evacuated Sunday.
Apple said Monday it’s investigating an incident at the Apple Store in Amsterdam that led to a call to the fire service a day earlier.
Sunday’s incident was first reported by Dutch outlet AT5, which claimed that an iPad had exploded in the store. It quoted a spokesman from the local fire service as saying the fire was likely caused by a «leaking battery pack.»
«We’re currently investigating the incident that took place at Apple Amsterdam on Sunday,» a spokeswoman for Apple said in a statement. «Our staff were able to evacuate customers quickly and safely and the store re-opened shortly afterwards.»
Amsterdam’s fire service didn’t respond to a request for comment.
The incident follows another evacuation this year at an Apple Store in Switzerland where an iPhone reportedly emitted smoke .
