MIAMI A retired police captain who killed a man after an argument over
texting in a movie theater told detectives that he feared he was under
attack when the victim hit him in the face with an unknown object, police
records show.
.
The object witnesses saw was popcorn.
.
On Tuesday, a Florida judge denied bond for Curtis J. Reeves Jr., 71, who
was charged with second-degree murder in a case that is likely to revolve
around Floridas much-debated self-defense laws. He faces life in prison if
convicted.
.
Mr. Reeves was arrested Monday afternoon after he shot Chad Oulson, 43,
who had been sitting in front of him at a matinee in Wesley Chapel, about
20 miles north of Tampa. Their dispute started because Mr. Oulson would
not stop texting during the previews.

He was sitting there texting. It was making noise, and it was causing a
problem for Curtis Reeves, the Pasco County sheriff, Chris Nocco, said at
a news conference. Curtis Reeves asked him a few times to turn off his
phone, and Chad decided not to.
.
Mr. Reeves left to report the issue to an employee. When he returned, Mr.
Oulson turned around and complained, asking Mr. Reeves whether he had gone
to report him to the theaters management.
.
Mr. Reeves, who retired from the Tampa Police Department in 1993, told an
investigator: The victim turned and stood up, striking him in the face
with an unknown object, Detective Allen Proctor wrote in a police report.
The defendant advised that he removed the .380 semiautomatic handgun from
his pants pocket, firing one round striking the victim, and that he was in
fear of being attacked.
.

.
The police dismissed the notion that Mr. Reeves was exercising his right
to self-defense.
.
Floridas self-defense statute, known as the Stand Your Ground law, removes
peoples duty to retreat when they fear mortal danger. The police in
another city in Central Florida, Sanford, cited the law as the reason no
arrest was made the night a neighborhood watch volunteer, George
Zimmerman, shot and killed a teenager in a fight in a gated community in
2012, a decision that prompted protests across the country.
