Apple Store Geniuses -- employees you would normally encounter at in-store Genius Bars -- are portrayed as spunky heroes in commercials that premiered during the opening weekend of the Olympics. After foiling an alleged kidnapping and robbery scheme, one Apple Store employee in Louisville, Ky., certainly fits the bill.

On Saturday, an Apple Store employee saved the day after alerting authorities about a woman claiming she was kidnapped from her home and brought into the Oxmoor Mall location.

The victim arranged to meet a man named "Greg," whom she met online, at her home for a date. Instead, Victor A. Sarver, Jr. showed up at the victim's home. He forced her to drive around and buy expensive items at her expense, according to reports. The pair ended up at the Apple Store where she was finally able to ask for help. Louisville Metro Police officers apprehended Sarver on the scene.
