Aurora Colorado- Assignment

In the early hours of July 20, 2012, moviegoers at the Aurora Century 16 in Colorado were settling into their seats for the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises when a masked gunman opened fire on the crowd. Dressed from head to toe in ballistic gear and a long black coat, gunman James Holmes killed 12 and wounded 53. This tragic event has been called the worst mass shooting in American history. Holmes was apprehended a mere 8 minutes later by two officers who made an immediate observation that his attire did not match the SWAT team present in that community. Later, it was determined that Holmes had booby-trapped his apartment with 30 explosive devices.
