Apple Store in Leidseplein square in Amsterdam has been evacuated after an iPad exploded, Dutch outlet AT5 reported Sunday. 

The incident was confirmed by the city’s fire brigade, which tweeted that three people had respiratory problems following the incident. 

The incident was probably caused by a leaking battery pack, the tweet said.
