Post subject: | Colorodo Shooting |
So many of you already heard this story from last night, they also said that after he was caught, he told police that he had more guns in his apartment. A friend of a friend who lives around there said that they took a small camera to take a look and found wires and boxes everywhere. http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/ ... -medical-school?lite The man suspected of carrying out the Colorado movie theater shooting, 24-year-old James Eagan Holmes from San Diego, was a graduate student in the neuroscience program at the University of Colorado Medical School campus in Aurora, a university spokesman told NBC News. He was in the process of withdrawing from school, the university confirmed. "The University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus can confirm that Mr. James Holmes was in the process of withdrawing from the University of Colorado Denver's graduate program in neurosciences," the university statement said. "Mr. Holmes enrolled at the university in June 2011." The university website listed one of his courses as the Biological Basis of Psychiatric and Neurological Disorders. He was listed on the class website as making a presentation in the spring on MicroRNA biomarkers. The University of California, Riverside, confirmed that a student named James Eagan Holmes, with the same date of birth, graduated with a bachelor's degree in neuroscience in 2010. He graduated in four years, attending from the fall of 2006 to spring 2010. Public records show that the Holmes living in Aurora had a previous address at a Riverside dormitory. A student who lived across the hall from Holmes in Riverside, Jessica Cade, said he completed the honors program and was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Golden Key honor societies. "I always thought that he was a little strange. I could never put my finger on it, but something told me to not get to close to him, female instincts I guess," Cade told NBC News. "I had tons of classes with him and lived across him in the Honors dorms. He was a very smart guy though. He was a little bit of a weird guy, but we were honors students, so weird people were kind of common." Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said Friday that Holmes, born Dec. 13, 1987, is the man who is believed to have killed at least 12 people at a midnight showing of the new Batman movie in Aurora, a suburb of Denver. "We are confident that he acted alone," Oates said. He said he had no way to tell how many rounds were fired, but it was "many, many." Holmes was arrested without any resistance at his white Hyundai car in the theater parking lot. He was wearing a black ballistic helmet, a ballistic tactical vest, leggings, throat and groin protectors, and tactical gloves, Oates said. Four weapons were found, one in the theater and three in his car, which was parked just outside the back door to the theater, Oates said. Two were handguns, made by Glock. Both were 40-caliber. At least one of those was used, the police chief said. One shotgun, a Remington model 870, one of the most popular models. Pump action, single barrel. And one Smith and Wesson AR-15 type rifle, called by some an "assault rifle." These weapons can accommodate large ammunition "clips," but authorities have not yet said what kind of magazines were at the scene. After being captured by police, Holmes told authorities he had explosive materials in his apartment, KUSA reported. Local and federal officials searched Holmes' apartment building, which was evacuated soon after the shooting, sources told NBC News. Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said it was established that the apartment had been booby-trapped with sophisticated explosives or flammable material and officers were trying to determine how to defuse the device or devices. |

Aurora is only 13 miles from Littleton. That small area of Colorado has been through a lot. |

Yeah I heard about that, and saw it all over the news. Shocking stuff. I find it weird that people do that and then just surrender (although it's a better thing than them being on the loose). |

It's a shame that there are people out there that do these kinds of things. Absolutely disgusting. Rest in peace to everyone who got killed and I hope their families are doing okay. I'm also praying for those who were severely injured. |

So some lunatic over there is suggesting you allow students to carry guns now for protection in school. When will you lot learn exactly. I went to see the batman film yesterday. At no point did anyone even attempt to pull out a gun and shoot everyone. Which was nice cause it meant i got to watch the film in peace and without worrying about a bullet wound. |
