Patrons say they heard what they thought was an explosion but it was a gunman opening fire during the early Friday morning screening.
At least 14 people were killed by the gunfire and 50 were wounded.
An eyewitness said the man was dressed all in black wearing a riot helmet, bullet proof vest and goggles. 
Witnesses say that the gunman kicked in an emergency exit door and threw a smoke bomb into the darkened theater before opening fire.
An eyewitness told reporters that about 30 or 40 minutes into the film a man come into the right-hand exit nearest the front row.
“I’m pretty sure wearing [a] mask. He fired a canister into the air – it could have been a smoke bomb or tear gas,” stated a woman, identified only as Pam.
“It shot it right into the air, then I started to hear the bang, bang, bang of a gun.
“I crawled my way through the row, luckily the exit was close to where I was sitting so I got out pretty fast. I heard more shots as I left,” she said.
A witness in the next-door theatre revealed that he heard loud bangs and a lot of smoke and initially thought they were live special effects put on by the cinema.
Projectiles came through the wall from the neighboring screening, he said.
CNN quoted one witness saying: “A guy slowly making his way up the stairs and firing – picking random people.”
The suspect was reportedly heavily armed and wore a bulletproof vest. He was apprehended by police in a parking lot at the theater.
The identity of the suspect has not immediately been released. (source 1 and 2)
This is yet another example of how your life can change at a moment’s notice. Innocent people were killed and many were injured. People are seriously crazy these days…
You’ve got that right bat shyt crazy. Prayers to the families. I hate ALL killing but killing of children just burns me up even more. I saw the cellphone video kids in batman costumes. Just heartbreaking. 3 weapons tear gas bulletproof vest I knew immediately what time it was. And I bet movie theaters will have check points from here on out. Just prayers for everyone responders too.
YOU CANT GO TO THE MOVIES WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT BEING SHOT THESE DAYS! SAD. SO SAD.
This Horrible! My prayers go out to these people.
This is absolutely HORRIBLE! But what can you expect in states like that where white folk can strut down the street with assault rifles and the cops CAN’T do ANYTHING about it. Don’t believe me? Go youtube that "black man tased" video on B****p. Dude was tased by 3 cops for crossing the street at cross walk and asking them why they needed his ID. White man was stopped for carrying assault rifle on the street,refused to give them ID and they let him go..WITH his gun. I wouldn’t be surprised if the repubs are behind this. Trying a new strategy to force Barry to speak out against their Gun God the NRA. This will backfire on them too. Barry’s gonna stay in the pocket and let THEIR people step to mic and speak out themselves.
Repubs be mad cause BANE is villain.
What is going on in this damn world where you can’t go to the movies and enjoy a flick! I can’t! Mothership come get me now!
Aint’ Colorado had ENOUGH? How many of their kidz are they willing to lose just so crazy azz Junior can have his guns? Columbine should chane it’s name to CORBINE.
Wow this is really sad, don’t know when you will be in an unsafe place.nasty ass people around waiting to snap.
wow! Just last week and idiot shot up in a bar in tuscaloosa Alabama and injured 17 with 5 of them being critical–Now THIS at the movies—I mean U just cant go NOWHERE without being paranoid
The news media is already calling that bastard "young man", "gentleman","disturbed yong man". While NY’s mayor Bloomberg DEMANDS action from Obama. Until the communities allowing their youths legal access to straw sales take to streets in all these "Right to Carry/Conceal" states take a stand against the NRA Obama can’t do a DAMN thang.
Any day now, Jesus. Please come Save us!
poor ppl didnt even see it coming but i did…the goverment is behind this they want any excuse to put the un gun treaty in effect and pls belive the goverment is just that dirty to do something like this.
U got it right on the money. this and trayvon martin will probably be enuff for the govt. and obama to shove the un gun treaty down our throats and make it easier for the nwo/elite to take over.
this was a bl00d sacrifice, and a pretext to increase “gun control”. The film is titled the “Dark Knight” RISES and the alleged “shooting” takes place in “Aurora” (“Aurora” means “rising of the light” i.e. Lucifer) “Colorado” smh. The previous shooting in Colorado (by the so-called “trench coat mafia”) was in Denver, which was originally called “Auraria”. Colorado seems to be a hotbed for mind-control assassin creations and maneuvers.The point of gun control is to take away any individual thought process or sense of protecting one’s self. You are to look to the police force, which is a corporate entity, for all protection. That is why they stage these rituals where police kill innocent people, it gets played out in the media, the “officer” is put on trial, and then exonerated. It is to condition the citizens that the police are a higher power. The citizens of the Corporation of Homeland Security (which is the real name of America) are viewed as UNITS, not flesh and blood people deserving of rights. America was a science project from the beginning, and like all science projects, after the science fair is over, you break down the project and throw it in the trash. That is what the so-called banking elite are systematically doing.
@awakeyet and mon88…I can see that you two are cyber trolling throwing shade at prez and trying to influence who you think are stupid folk on Black sites. GIT yo’ ignorant azzez up outta here. Aint’ nobody fallin’ for yo’ shyt!
u need to wake up and quit being blinded by color and judge ppl off there actions
Did you copy and paste that from Judah on concreteloop?
People still read that site?
Let us all "PRAY" that is those of us who believe in an Almighty Creator who will deliver us from Evil in his own time and not ours. The Earth is a very Scary place man seems to have wrong desires in his heart ALL THE TIME! Now this person who slaughtered the innocent and injured MANY will sit in prison and be taken care of until he dies, so unfair…
Man oh man. I am really at a lost right here. Its almost like we are warping into a society that is safer at home.
This is just ridiculous. My prayers for the moms and dads that took their babies out to have a good time and was robbed of that joy.
And to the rest of the families…smh…my heart goes out to you.
My prayers are with the victims and their families. This was a senseless crime committed by a sociopath who deserves a death just as gruesome as those innocent people.
I read in the paper that HE came in through the exit of the movie theater.
NOW! The question is HOW did he manage to do that? Most places of business you cannot use the exit from the outside, and most times whenever the movie is over all the exist are "checked to make sure they are locked.
Unless he was already in the theater left throught the exit left it open and came back with the arsenal.. Which is still impossible cause How could you not see someone coming in through a door (if you are sitting front row) with all the weapons,bombs …Dude seemed as if he was ready for battle. I do not believe anyone will actually get the real truth unless he decide to tell it.
