Apple's Amsterdam store evacuated after iPad battery explodes
Apple's Amsterdam store has been evacuated and temporarily closed after an iPad battery exploded and released potentially harmful substances into the air.
As reported by iCulture, Apple employees secured the iPad and punctured battery in a container of sand after it exploded.
Due to the chemicals potentially released, the store has been closed as firefighters work to ventilate the space and clear out any harmful vapors.
Although not related with this iPad battery explosion, as Apple started its iPhone battery replacement program we've seen a few more incidences like this over the past months.
Like today's incident, fortunately those also didn't see any major injuries, but Apple employees did sustain minor burns.
