A man, who complained about someone sitting near him talking on a cellphone during a movie screening at a Lancaster movie theater, was stabbed in the neck with a meat thermometer.



The incident happened two weeks ago at the Cinemark 22 theater during a screening of "Shutter Island," according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

During the 9 p.m. screening of the Martin Scorsese film, the victim complained about a woman near him using a cellphone.

The woman and two men with her left the cinema for a few minutes, but the two men returned a few minutes later and stabbed the victim.

Two moviegoers who rushed to the victim's aid were also injured during the fight.

The victim, who was not identified, was taken to hospital with serious wounds.

The suspects managed to avoid police.

If you have any information about the attack, please call the Lancaster sheriff's station at (661) 948-8466.
