Scare At A Newport Beach Movie Theater

movie-theater-scare-poi

A scare at a movie theater in Newport Beach, California, when someone started a leaf blower that many mistook for a chainsaw.

Newport Beach police responded to multiple 911 calls, and ended up questioning four people — from 15 to 20 years old in connection with incident.

They turned themselves in after surveillance photos were released (seen above).

No arrests were made, but the four are cooperating with investigators.

Three people had suffered minor injuries in the panicked rush to get out of the theater.

Detectives are NOT treating the incident as a harmless prank.
