DIJON, France — Calmly, one by one, a man walks through an Apple store in France smashing iPhones with a hand-sized metal ball.
Video of the tirade, posted to YouTube Thursday, shows the man destroying about 12 iPhones and a laptop before he is confronted by security.
"Apple is a company that violated European consumers' rights," the man said into the camera a customer used to record the video. "They refused to reimburse me. I told them: 'Give me my money back'. They said, 'No.' So you know what is happening? This is happening."
The man, who is still unidentified, was arrested by police, according to The Independent.
