Moviegoer pummels fellow patron in Florida AMC theater over VIP seat beef

This was one action-packed scene.

An irate moviegoer was caught on tape pummeling a fellow patron over a seat in a Florida theater earlier this month, authorities stated.

The unidentified suspect appeared to throw quite a few punches at a 63-year-old man who stumbled to the bottom throughout a part of the unhinged assault on July 10, based on footage released by the Broward County Sheriff’s Office.

The confrontation between the 2 males started when the sufferer and his spouse noticed the suspect and his feminine companion within the VIP seats they bought upfront earlier than displaying as much as the AMC Pompano theater, police stated.

When the sufferer “politely” requested the pair to maneuver, witnesses instructed investigators the alleged perp “grew to become hostile” earlier than standing up and “aggressively getting within the sufferer’s face,” the sheriff’s workplace stated.

The footage from authorities confirmed the suspect inches from the sufferer’s face earlier than the altercation turned bodily.

The sufferer barely pushed the suspect away, which led to the suspect launching on the sufferer, who came upon a set of stairs along with the theater.

As soon as on the bottom, the suspect started throwing haymakers on the sufferer’s face as others within the theaters rushed to cease the assault, police stated.

The 63-year-old man suffered accidents to face and head and wanted to be handled at an area hospital.

The suspect in the meantime fled from the theater with the unidentified lady, authorities stated.

In a bid to search out the suspect, the sheriff’s workplace launched pictures of the pair as they exit the theater.
