One person was killed and one wounded Monday in a shooting inside a Florida movie theater following a quarrel over texting, WTSP-TV reported.

Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said a male was taken into custody after a good Samaritan detained the suspect until deputies arrived at Cobb Theatres Grove 16 and CineBistro in Wesley Chapel.

An argument started when the male victim was texting during the previews before a showing of Lone Survivor, Nocco said.The male suspect, who was sitting behind the couple, took out a gun and shot them both, Nocco said.

"It's absolutely crazy it would rise to this level over somebody just texting," Nocco said.

The victims were airlifted to a Bay area hospital, where the man died and the woman was reported to have non-life threatening injuries. Investigators describe the shooting as an "isolated incident."
