Texting Triggers Fatal Movie Theater Shooting
Jan. 13, 2014



An argument between two couples over text messaging inside of a Florida
movie theater turned deadly today that left one man dead and a woman
wounded.

Police said that two couples began arguing before a showing of "Lone
Survivor" over one couple's text messaging.

A male suspect, whose identity has not yet been released, became angry
and took out a gun and shot the other couple, according to the Pasco
County Sheriff's office.

"The victim was on his cellphone, he was texting. We believe he was
making some kind of noise. This noise led to an altercation," Sheriff
Chris Nocco said, according to ABC News affiliate WFTS. "During that
altercation, the suspect decided to pull out a .380 and he shoots the
victim."

The sheriff's office said in a statement that an unnamed "good
Samaritan" helped detain the suspect until police arrived.

The two victims were airlifted to Tampa General Hospital, where the man
was pronounced dead and the woman is being treated for non-life
threatening injuries, according to police.

The shooting occurred around 1:30 p.m. today at the Cobb Grove 16
Theater in Wesley Chapel, Fla., north of Tampa.

Police noted that the shooter and victims did not appear to know one
another.

Well, that didn't take long. So much for the new, improved rec.boats.



What? It wasn't political, nor was it insulting to any poster here. It
was...an example of evolution in action.

The shooter apparently felt threatened by the guy who was texting.
Perfectly understandable. The texter should have known better.

There was another example of evolution in Chicago. Some moron dropped
his cell in the Chicago river and apparently went in after it, and he
and a girlfriend, at least, drowned.

America is drowning in its own stupidity.


Another attack on Americans? Why?
