SAN MARCOS: Theater Shooting 1/11/13

INFORMATION CONFIRMED WITH SHERIFF LT. MIKE MUNSEY ON SCENE:

One woman is in the hospital tonight with non-life threatening injuries after she was struck by a bullet at the Edwards Movie Theater in San Marcos. It happened shortly before 10 p.m. when San Marcos Sheriff received a call for “shots fired” at the theater. Lt. Mike Mumsey told me that the gunfire came from a possible group scuffle in the parking lot and accidentally penetrated the building’s glass, striking the employee’s wrist.

After the shots rang out, people were seen fleeing from the theater and ASTREA helicopter was called in to search for any suspects in the area. The search turned up negative and the shooters are at large.

The theater employee, who was working at the concession stand near the entrance, was transported to Palomar Hospital and is expected to be ok. No more information has been released since the incident.
