A man was arrested at the Regal Cinemas at Crocker Park, in Westlake Saturday after he was discovered to be in possession of multiple weapons while sitting in an empty theater waiting for the 10 p.m. showing of "The Dark Knight Rises" to start.
Scott Smith, of North Ridgeville, had a beige satchel that raised suspicion when he entered the theater. After Smith took a seat, an off-duty Westlake police officer who was providing security to the movie theater asked to search the bag.
Police providing security at the Regal Cinemas Crocker Park found a loaded 9mm Glock handgun, multiple loaded magazine and four knives on Scott Smith.

The officer found a loaded 9mm Glock handgun, multiple loaded magazines and three knives inside, Westlake Police Lt. Ray Arcuri said. An additional knife was found underneath his clothes.
"He sat in the last row, right in the middle," said Arcuri. "If he was going to try to assault anybody, he'd have a full range of victims."
Arcuri added that being in the back row prevented anybody from being able to come up from behind Smith, giving him a "tactical advantage."
News of the arrest stunned moviegoers.

"That's really scary," Jennifer Moore told WKYC. "We were just talking about copycats … it definitely puts you on high alert."
Police searched Smith's truck in the parking lot and found a tactical vest, the station reported.
"That was luck," Lillian McNulty told the station, "or divine intervention."
In a statement emailed to the Daily News, Regal spokesman Russ Nunley said the cinema chain takes "safety and security very seriously." He added that Regal prohibits all patrons from carrying firearms or concealed weapons into theaters and that the theater reserves the right to search anyone's backpack, package or bag.

WOMP: T-Boz Sells Mansion For Almost Half Of Original Price
T-Boz has
reportedly unloaded the Georgia mansion she almost lost to foreclosure. But TMZ
says the TLC singer was forced to sell the house for nearly half the price she
paid for it. T-Boz, whose real name is Tionne Watkins, bought the five-bedroom,
ten-thousand-square-foot home for one-million-122-thousand-700-dollars in 2001,
but sold it for only 680-thousand-dollars. Back in 2008, sadly the house was
almost put up for auction when Watkins failed to make her mortgage payments on
time.
She was able to
hang on to it for a while, and eventually filed for bankruptcy last year with
the mortgage being her main source of debt. Just so yall know the singer moved
to LA to make a new start, and no longer lives in the ATL at all… She is said to
be working on new music and the move about her life.

Well Looky Looky,
TO is back in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks!
Terrell Owens is
coming back to the NFL, hoping the Seattle Seahawks’ search for another veteran
wide receiver will get him off the sidelines.
The 38-year-old
Owens had a tryout with the Seahawks and later the team announced it had agreed
to terms with the former star receiver. He hasn’t played in the NFL since the
2010 season with Cincinnati, when he caught 72 passes for 983 yards and nine
touchdowns.
Foxsports.com first reported the agreement between Owens and the Seahawks. Terms of Owens’ contract weren’t available.
Owens sat out the entire 2011 season following surgery on his left knee and failed to receive any offers. He then had surgery on his left knee and didn’t receive any offers to play last season.
Owens initially made his return this spring playing for the Allen Wranglers of the Indoor Football League. He had 35 catches for 420 yards and 10 touchdowns while playing eight of 11 games, but was released and lost an ownership stake in the team in May.
Owens, a
third-round draft choice by San Francisco in 1996, has started 201 of the 219
regular-season NFL games he has played in his career. He has 1,078 receptions
for 15,934 yards and 153 touchdowns — the second most in league
history.
His nine seasons with at least 1,000 yards receiving and 13 years with at least 50 catches rank third. His total receptions are sixth on the NFL career list. Owens spent eight seasons with San Francisco, two with Philadelphia, and three with Dallas before a pair of one-year stints with Buffalo and Cincinnati.
Owens is the latest veteran receiver the Seahawks have signed since training camp began. It started when the Seahawks brought in Antonio Bryant, but he was cut late last week. Seattle also signed Braylon Edwards, who played sparingly in 2011 with San Francisco during an injury-filled season. Now it’s Owens getting his chance.
Seattle is seeking
both insurance and a complement for Sidney Rice. Last season, Rice played in
just nine games as he was sidelined by shoulder injuries and concussions. Rice
had surgery on both shoulders in the offseason and is being held out of contact
drills during training camp as the Seahawks try to get him to the start of the
regular season healthy.
Additionally, the Seahawks cut No. 2 receiver Mike Williams in July, and Golden Tate, Doug Baldwin and Ben Obomanu, the Seahawks’ main options for filling that role, don’t fit head coach Pete Carroll’s desire to have another tall receiver with a big frame.

the practice field Tuesday morning when the Seahawks return from their off
day.
NeYo Explains Why He Gave Beyonce Writing Credits for something she didn’t write!
Ne-Yo (real name
Shaffer Chimere Smith) stopped by Power 105′s ‘The Breakfast Club’ chatting
about why he turned down a popular movie role, giving (or losing) writing
credits to stars like Beyonce and what Trey Songz is lacking.
Peep a few
excerpts below.
On rumors that he
turned down playing Dr. Martin Luther King because he’d be forced to lose and
gain weight:
It wasn’t so much about the weight. Thats a role for an actor, actor.

On if he’s
turned more to pop music, leaving his R&B roots:
The first record that I put out was ‘Lazy Love’. I can never abandon R&B. If you listen to my pop music, there’s still some soul in there. The soul in my voice comes from my R&B background.

On if
Beyonce should have received writing credits for “Irreplaceable”:
When you hear me sing it, and hear her sing it, it’s two damn totally different songs. So yeah I gave her writing credits. The suject matter was the same. She added the Beycone twist on it.

On if he’s
impressed with R&B right now or inspired:
No. Not at all. I feel like there’s an emotional disconnect in R&B right now. You hear ‘em singing about love, but you don’t believe ‘em. It’s too oversexed right now.

On how he
feels about Trey Songz in R&B:
Iv’e talked to Trey before. Trey’s one of them dudes that could be a serious problem if he decided to put that emotion in there. Just the emotional disconnect is there.

Wiz Khalifa Says Amber Rose WILL Have His Baby.....Just NOT NOW!
During an
interview on the Q Deezy Show on Philly's 107.9, Wiz Khalifa discussed his boo
Amber Rose and said he wants her to be the mother of his kids. But even though
she's been looking suspiciously with child lately with a rounder bod and no more
dyed hair, he says she's not pregnant...yet. The "Work Hard Play Hard" rapper
told Q Deezy:
"I want babies. I
definitely want to have kids for sure. Oh, you all think Amber's pregnant? Cause
I've been asked that. I'm saying here that is not what people think it is. But,
she will have my baby in life, and you guys will know when she's pregnant. But
it's not the time now for people to start going crazy."
The leader of the
Taylor Gang added that he's loving the (almost) married life and even researches
it.
"It's going awesome, man. The married life, I feel like I'm already married." "I read books and s--- like that. Like there's this book called 'Things I Wish I'd Known Before [We] Got Married.' That's a good book 'cause it just tells you a lot about being selfless and really, really communicating. And know when you get upset, just talking about it and letting them know why you're upset."

So no baby yet.
Amber's just in love and letting go--a bit--of that bold video vixen look. She's on the wifey tip now. And seems like
Wiz really has his head on straight when it comes to his relationship. We're
sold on it. We know we know...sue us.
