Moviegoer pummels fellow patron in Florida AMC theater over seat

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 said.

The unidentified suspect appeared to throw numerous punches at a 63-year-old man who stumbled to the ground during part of the unhinged attack on July 10, according to footage released by the Broward County Sheriff’s Office.

The confrontation between the two men began when the victim and his wife saw the suspect and his female companion in the VIP seats they purchased in advance before showing up to the AMC Pompano theater, police said.

When the victim “politely” asked the pair to move, witnesses told investigators the alleged perp “became hostile” before standing up and “aggressively getting in the victim’s face,” the sheriff’s office said.

The footage from authorities showed the suspect inches from the victim’s face before the altercation turned physical.

The victim slightly pushed the suspect away, which led to the suspect launching at the victim, who stumbled on a set of stairs at the side of the theater.

Once on the ground, the suspect began throwing haymakers at the victim’s face as others in the theaters rushed to stop the attack, police said.

The 63-year-old man suffered injuries to face and head and needed to be treated at a local hospital.
