KENT, Wash. (AP) — An Auburn man accused of hitting a noisy 10-year-old in a Kent theater has been charged with assault.

King County prosecutors says 21-year-old Yong Hyun Kim knocked out one of the boy’s teeth on April 11 after the boy and several others refused to quiet down and stop throwing popcorn.

The seattlepi.com reports (http://is.gd/aceMfy) Kim thought the boy was an adult.
