GREENSBORO, N.C. -- A Greensboro theater has suspended showings of a movie about the life and death of rapper Notorious B.I.G. after a shooting.

Police say a 32-year-old man was shot twice in the abdomen during an argument and about 700 people were evacuated Friday night from the Grand 18 at Four Seasons Station.

Greensboro police Lt. James Hinson told The News & Record of Greensboro the shooting victim underwent surgery at Moses Cone Hospital. The hospital said Saturday the man requested no information about his condition be given to the media.

Hinson says investigators have found no link between the movie and Friday's shooting.

A spokeswoman for the theater's owner says customers holding tickets for Friday's showing of "Notorious" should contact the Grand 18 for refunds.

Now, for the most part, I'm a law abiding person. I say for the most part. I am guilty of occasionally going over the speed limit inadvertantly.

I agree this law should be changed. However, I am reminded of something a very wise old man once told me. Probably been used to death over the years. "Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6"
