A man in camouflage gear and a Balaclava fired a gun at Apple’s flagship Amsterdam store. The hostage was reportedly an Apple customer from somewhere outside the Netherlands.

The store is located in leidseplein, a busy area in the city center with many people around. Dozens of other people were also inside when the incident began, but they managed to escape before things came to an end.

Police on the scene hit the running suspect with an armored BMW X5. As the suspect lay motionless on the ground, police sent over a robot to check them for explosives.

Police say the hostage-taker requested water which was brought into to the store by a robot. The hostage took that opportunity to run for safety.

The suspect demanded 200 million euros worth of cryptocurrency. He demanded safe passage away from the Apple store. Police believe he acted alone.

The hostage-taker died from his injuries in the hospital on Wednesday evening. Police said the suspect had explosive’components’ that were not armed, as well as a pistol and a semi-automatic weapon that he fired during the incident.

An Apple spokesperson thanked local law enforcement for their’exceptional work and ongoing investigation’.’we are so thankful for the support and care they’ve shown each other under such challenging circumstances’.
