The most unconventional hostage situation resolve I’ve ever seen:

Man with a suicide vest holds hostage at an Amsterdam Apple Store for hours. Hostage makes run for it. Police mow down terrorist in unmarked car then aim their guns at him. No shots fired. Impressive.

Thats the weirdest hostage demand............how did he think Apple was going to give him money for holding a customer hostage?? LMAOROFL Apple doesn't give a shit about people.

At least the police there know what the hell they are doing.

But Amsterdam has very strict firearms laws. Apparently laws don't work.
