Authorities arrested a Seattle moviegoer who allegedly threatened to "shoot everyone" after being "wronged" in a theater Friday night, said cops.

Police responded to the venue after witnesses said the unidentified 30-year-old male suspect "felt wronged" by someone who walked past his seat twice, KING-TV reported.

The suspect allegedly whipped out a gun and yelled "I'll shoot everyone" inside the Regal Thornton Place theater, police said, according to the outlet.

Patrons tackled the suspect and attempted to wrestle the weapon out of his hands.

A 40-year-old man and a 42-year-old woman both suffered lacerations during the tussle, police said, according to the station.

No one was shot.

The suspect fled but was arrested shortly after on charges of suspicion of assault, felony harassment and unlawful imprisonment, KCPQ-TV reported.
