A heavily armed gunman killed at least 12 people and wounded 38 more during an early Friday morning screening of the new Batman movie at an Aurora, Colorado, theater, police Chief Dan Oates told reporters.
Earlier, police said 14 had been killed.
Police arrested a man believed to be the shooter in a rear parking lot of the theater, Frank Fania, a police spokesman, told CNN. The suspect was not immediately identified, though Fania said he was believed to be in his early 20s.
"He did not resist. He did not put up a fight," Fania said. Police seized a rifle and a handgun from the suspect, and another gun was found in the theater, he said.

This is the traditional culture of USA. No big deal !
lets blame Iran and Hezbollah for this
Coming from someone who just came back from a midnight showing I have to say this is terrifying. I'm unsure as to how some of you are making jokes. People like you just need a swift clock to the face. Everyone is sooo quick to make jokes online now without having to deal with consequences. Most of us, at times myself included, would NEVER say these things in person. Get over your online alter-egos. Prayers go out to everyone affected tonight.
Is it really safe anywhere? Too many different cultures living under the same roof. Can't work.....won't work. A country cannot survive when you have so many religions and beliefs. Goodbye Beautiful America.
Tell it to the American and Mexican Indians and Mestizos. Get out and give them their land back. One nation under God....in your dreams.
Really? You think 'Beautiful' America is going away. 'Beautiful' America was gone when the illegal immigrants came and infested the shores of Indigenous America. Yes, I'm talking about 'Pilgrims' & the rest of the 'Europeans'... It's been a lost cause ever since.
does this mean nra convention is off?
Our government warned Americans of attacks on us in other countries but failed to warn Americans of attacks here.
reports say at least 10 dead..39 wounded, some critical
Must have been at a Batman screening. Not a pleasant footnote is this one going to be
Remember folks its not guns that kill people – its people that kill people – (don't ya just want to vomit evertime you hear that phrase)! Oh well I'm sure the NRA will come up with some excuse.
If a legal gun owner had a gun, they could've stopped this middle eastener.
it makes me sick when I hear Islam is a peaceful religion
I went to see The Dark Knight Rises and all I got was this bloody t-shirt
Apparently someone didn't want to wait in line to see the new Batman movie.

Thanks Einstein. I can read the news as well.
Ghetto dwellers and movies don't mix.
Did the two Columbine maniacs escape from hell? If it wasn't them then it was two nerds doing it as a joke.
Some news outlets are calling it an act of Domestic Terrorism. So that could mean two Right Wing nutjobs
I hope upon all hope this was nota Limbaugh incited! The 'Bane" conspiracy crap.
