A 44-year-old Chinese woman was tasered at the New Hampshire Apple Store after being asked to leave the Apple Store...
Xiaojie Li, a non-English speaking woman, bought two iPhone 5s on Friday to send to family members in China. Li attempted to purchase more iPhone 5s but the Apple Store told her she reached her two-per-customer limit. She then pulled out her iPhone to get video of customers purchasing more than the limit and was asked to leave the Store.
The woman returned to the Pheasant Lane Mall Apple Store in Nashua, New Hampshire on Tuesday, this time trying to pick up two more iPhone 5 units she ordered online. The Apple Store manager refused to sell her more iPhone 5 models and asked her to leave, when she refuse, Police tried to escort the woman out of the mall.

Nashua police captain Bruce Hansen stated:
”The officer approached her, told her she wasn’t welcome in the store, and she refused to leave”.
The police then tasered the unarmed woman, brought her to the ground, after what they called to be “resisting arrest”, and charged her with resisting arrest and criminal trespass, misdemeanors in New Hampshire. The officiers found $16,000 cash on her person, which means she was either trying to make a profit off the iPhone 5, or just a huge amount of shopping for the holidays. The woman told WMUR news later on that she did not understand English and what the police and Apple Store employees were trying to say to her.

WTF!? 2 units limit!? anyway anyone could go in and but another 2... if she were discreet it would have been smoother and she would have gone unnoticed, maybe even wearing some disguise.
ReplyDeleteYeah, exactly! Or maybe they check your I.D before selling units, not sure! 2 units limit sounds pretty idiotic though.
