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.

The shooting suspect is in police custody.

I am astonished that a single shooting by a white guy draws so much attention, but the dozens of shootings in Chicago or Detroit draw none.
