http://a57.foxnews.com/www.foxnews.c...720_055429.jpg The violent and chaotic scene erupted about 12:30 a.m. MDT as a gunman stood at the front of one of the Century 16 theaters at the Aurora Mall where the movie "The was playing, police said. "Witnesses tell us he released some sort of canister. They heard a hissing sound and some gas emerged and the gunman opened fire," Oates said at a news conference. Police, ambulances and emergency crews swarmed on the scene after frantic calls started flooding the 911 switchboard, officials said. Officers found the gunman near a car behind the theater. "A gas mask, rifle, handgun at least one additional weapon (were) found inside" he said. The suspect was taken into custody, but no name was released. Oates said there's no evidence of any other attackers. There was also no immediate word of any motive. Earlier reports said there may have been a second shooter, but police believe only one shooter was involved, KDVR tells Fox News. Witness Hayden Miller told KUSA-TV that he was inside Theater 16 and heard several shots. "Like little explosions going on and shortly after that we heard people screaming," he told the station. Hayden said at first he thought it was part of a louder movie next door. But then he saw "people hunched over leaving theater."

Tragic ... you don't hear about a lot of shootings in Colorado, but when you do, they're "mass" ... having never been there myself, is there anyone from that neck of the woods that could shed some light on why Coloradians seem to go 'big' when it comes to this kind of stuff?

They need to make an example of him.

My thoughts go out to the family and friends of the victims. What a senseless crime.

Here in germany the cinemas take action after the denver massacre. No costumes, people get searched when entering the cinema. Unblievable how many sick people are out there causing so much trouble and pain.

And, of course, the LAWSUITS are already starting ...
In wake of tragedy, lawyers step in: Colorado shooting survivor plans suit, says publicist | The Lookout - Yahoo! News Torrence Brown Jr., one of the Aurora movie shooting survivors, is planning on suing the theater, confirmed his family's publicist on Wednesday. "We're going to make sure whoever is accountable is going to take responsibility for this tragedy," Cassandra Williams of Wet PR said. She said that Brown, who was friends with 18-year-old AJ Boik, one of the shooting victims, is handling the criticism his suit has sparked. "We know it goes with the territory, so he's fine," Williams said. She added that Brown, 18, is seeking therapy and is emotionally distraught after the shooting. |

But, one person in that theater with a concealed carry, some witts, and some balls, could have saved some of those lives. |
