Imprisoned Regal Cinema Weapons Suspect Awaiting Charges

Scott A. Smith was arrested over the weekend after bringing guns, ammunition and knives to showing of 'The Dark Knight Rises' at Crocker Park movie theater.

Scott A. Smith remains in Cuyahoga County jail Thursday morning, awaiting formal charges after his Saturday arrest for bringing a gun, ammunition and four knives into a late-night showing of The Dark Knight Rises at .

Smith's attorney, Matthew Bruce, anticipated a bond hearing Wednesday, but it did not happen.

Nicole DiSanto of the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office said Wednesday that Scott would remain in jail until formal charges are made. According to the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas website, a formal hearing has been set for 1:45 p.m. Friday. No charges are listed on the docket.

Information is still coming in from the investigation by , DiSanto said. A grand jury will be convened to decide charges, but DiSanto was unsure when that would happen.

Smith was taken to county lock-up on Tuesday afternoon. He had been in jail in Westlake since Saturday night, when off-duty Westlake police officer Jeremiah Bullins searched Smith's Maxpedition bag and found a loaded 9MM Glock semiautomatic handgun, two addition loaded magazines, and three knives. A fourth knife was found on Smith.

Initial charges for the arrest were carrying various weapons, carrying a concealed weapon and having weapons under disability.

Bruce said Wednesday that Smith brought the weapons into the theater for self-defense, not to hurt anyone.

In another case of weapons and The Dark Knight Rises, police in New Haven, Conn.,  into a Tuesday screening of The Dark Knight Rises at Criterion-Bow Tie Cinemas.

Every season I wonder what <b><a href="http://www.louisvuittondamierspeedybag.com">Louis Vuitton Handbags</a></b> will create. I know I won’t like everything, but I can count on Louis Vuitton to make a few bags that are absolutely lust-worthy, it’s just what they do. When we shared a closer look at their Spring 2012 collection, I remember not being entirely impressed. Of course there was a theme – lightness and femininity paired with a whimsical touch – but as many have said, the bags look like they are made out of plastic (which they aren’t, just look at the price tags).
But nestled into this collection is a perfect summer piece, the <b><a href="http://www.louisvuittondamierspeedybag.com">Louis Vuitton Speedy</a></b> North South bag. Nautical blue and cream calfskin leather offset one another in a take on the <b><a href="http://www.louisvuittondamierspeedybag.com">Louis Vuitton Online Outlet</a></b> house classic.

why not take responsibility and find out for yourself and be aware of it

What's going on in the Paridise club in cuyahoga Falls is unbelievable, and for sure needs reported.Read More I was approached in October /november by the manager at that time. He came on to me in a very sick manner,said some very perverted commits and when I spoke up telling him I'm new to sobriety and not interested , he just chuckled with this disturbing smile. Then went on to offer me a job there at the Club, said I could through him get hired, then next came a sick smile. I left and didn't go back there for awhile . Would sometimes attend the AA meetings in the basement of Paridise Club , but stayed away from upstairs. But always very uncomfortable that I'd run into him. I had heard that He was no longer president because he admitted to being a sexual predator which involved several child of the AA members and others ,ect. So I stopped in for coffee and fellowship a month or so ago, and didn't see him until after I sat down. He was playing pool, but saw me. My stomach dropped , upon trying to leave , he approached me asking how sobriety was going. Then offered me a job to clean his apartment. Very ere! If I see him again there I will call the police. My friends daughter worked there I found out later. It's just plane sick that he is allowed there.

I would like to know where the person who wrote this blog got their information. AA is not aRead More religious cult or a cult of any sort. Members of AA have been helping other alcoholics since 1935. Medical science has proved that alcoholism is a disease with NO cure. AA is there to offer a helping hand.

Thank you Gail! This is just one of many, many stories. Convicted felons are routinely recruited toRead More 12 step cults. They have to go there, healthy people do not stay in this dangerous cult for long! ; ) http://www.orange-papers.org/orange-cult_a0.html

What's your point, DICK? You are posting a sarcastic question and clearly don't understand projectsRead More like PC and how cities work with builders. C'mon DICK, write a legitimate question and quit belly aching DICK.

Christine - you somehow missed the detail that the property has been sold to Stark? The ball is inRead More his court now.

We were very fortunate to have the Humane Society take them. They should be available for adoptionRead More soon. I am just deeply saddened that people can do something like this with no concern for the dogs' welfare and to thrust that responsibility onto others who can't stand by and do nothing.

Those kind of people would leave their human kids as well.

I agree, this is inconsiderate and unkind. I would wish that people would not treat their animalsRead More so, but that remains a wish. However, I am thankful that something worse did not happen. At least at the park, someone was there who was kindhearted enough to take action. I shudder to think of the "other" possibilities.

Congrats John. I know what you are feeling. I know when my daughter was born way back in 1975 @Read More Cuyahoga Falls General. I wanted to go out to the intersection of Broad and State Rd and shout at the top of my lungs, "I have a baby daughter" That was the greatest enjoyment and biggest trill ever!! I was a big part of the delivery. I was in the room the whole time and would not have it ant other way. Way to go John and Jaklyn!!
