Delaware police seize $75K, 200 fake Apple products

DOVER, Del. — Police think a New York man could have made nearly $73,000 off counterfeit Apple products before he and more than 200 other fakes were stopped in Delaware.

Citing a Delaware State Police release, The News Journal reports that 33-year-old Alsurymi Abdulrahman was pulled over Saturday for erratically switching into the EZ-Pass lane, and approaching officers could smell marijuana.

Police spotted a large amount of money in his glove box, and obtained a warrant. In addition to $72,600, they found 31 lightning USB cables, five sets of earbuds, 110 USB power adapters and 91 iPhone 7 USB lightning cables.

He’s charged with trademark counterfeiting, driving without a license and making an improper lane change. He posted $500 secured bond.

It’s unclear whether he has a lawyer to speak on his behalf.
