The family of an Ajax boy, who they say was injured during an attempted theft at an Apple Store, is suing the company for allegedly failing to ensure proper security measures were in place at the outlet in Fairview Mall. Apple “knew or should have known of the high level of thefts at the Apple Store prior to this incident,” a lawsuit filed by Andrew McDermott and Millisa MacCormack says. In a statement of defence, Apple denies liability for any injuries or distress alleged by McDermott and MacCormack. It alleges that Apple failed to provide proper security in a store the company knew or ought to have known would be targeted for acts of theft. McDermott and MacCormack “failed or neglected to take any or reasonable precautions to ensure their own safety,” the statement of defence says.
