On December 16, 2018, the Cinemark 14 became national headlines following the suicide of one of its male employees during evening rush hour.

A lot of moviegoers were confused on why there’s a lot of police cars on scene but was confirmed to be the man’s suicide.
Still open in 1987, but was gone by 1993.
