12 people were killed and 59 were injured (most critically) when a masked gunman reportedly kicked open an exit door and opened fire during a midnight showing of the Dark Knight Rises at a mall in Aurora, Colo.
Police and witness reports indicate that a gunman fired into the audience 15 minutes into the midnight showing of the film. Police confirmed that the shooter — who entered theater number 9 dressed all in black and wearing a gas mask and released a canister filled with gas — fired a rifle multiple times into the audience. Speaking on the Today Show, one witness described the suspect as wearing a SWAT-like outfit. Aurora police chief Dan Oates said that 10 died during the attack, and four more died in area hospitals. Several children, including a three-month-old and a six-year-old girl, were among those treated at nearby hospitals, according to reports.
