With millions of dollars of gadgets on display, the temptation to steal from some of the world's largest electronics trade shows can prove too strong for some.
On Sunday afternoon outside of the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, IDG reporters witnessed a man held to the ground by security staff for allegedly stealing from one of the show's exhibitors. No details were immediately available, but the incident happened just outside Samsung's hall and Samsung representatives were present in the area.

When an IDG reporter attempted to film the scene, he was physically blocked by a security guard who at one point pushed his camera. Shortly after the event Messe Berlin apologized for the actions of the security guard.
