Tampa Bay Theater Shooting: Video shows Assault before Shot

Outstretched Arm of person shot is under the red arrow.  Cup of popcorn just to left, in flight. Head of shooter just to left of cup in flight, barely visible.


A video has been released from the Tampa Bay Theater shooting from three years ago.

The shooting has been characterized as a retired police officer shooting someone for throwing popcorn at him.

A video has been released showing the violent confrontation. It happened very fast, about a second and a half.

Leave it to a cop to consider popcorn a deadly weapon.
