Apple settles with victims of Chinese iPad 2 scuffle


Recommended Posts

It turns out that the clearest account yet of the incident Saturday -- described by some observers as a "riot" -- that left blood and broken glass outside Apple's (AAPL) flagship store on Beijing's Sandilun Road was published Monday in the People's Daily, the official organ of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party:

"According to reports, the incident was started when a foreign worker confronted Ding Wencheng for allegedly jumping the line. This led to an altercation in which Ding was thrown against the corner of an outside wall, causing injuries to his face and wrist....

Apple and the injured parties have reached an agreement, according to a senior public security official who did not elaborate on the nature of that agreement.

There was no mention of the metal rod or club some claimed the unidentified foreigner was wielding.
