A frustrated Apple store customer ended up going to jail after threatening to shoot his iPhone with a concealed 9mm, according to WCPO news.

Donald Goodrich, 38, of Westwood, Cincinnati was frustrated that his iPhone was not working properly. He took the phone to an Apple Store employee saying he was "So mad, I could pop a 9mm at it."

The employee allegedly told Goodrich there was no need for that, then Goodrich allegedly told the employee, "I'll do it right now. Look!" At which point he allegedly showed the employee his concealed 9mm handgun.


The employee walked him to tech support at which point she informed the manager who then called the police.

While Goodrich did have a concealed weapons permit he is facing charges for "aggravated menacing, causing fear of harm to an Apple employee" as well as a carrying concealed weapons charge for failing to tell the deputy he had a gun.
