The Colorado Batman Massacre- The Live Tweets From When It Happened
Tondan has compiled Twitter updates from theatergoers at the Century 16 Theater at the Aurora Town Center Mall. These tweets provide a timeline of the horrific event at the “Dark Knight Rises” screening, from the excitement leading up to the midnight premier of the summer’s most anticipated blockbuster to the bloody and chaotic aftermath.
Unfortunately, not all the people whose tweets you see below made it out alive…
So very sad…

Home safe now. Walked home. Thought the best thing to do was to get out of there, trying to put everything together.

Words are useless. Guns more so. If you ever had any interaction with @jessicaredfield, you know the world is much worse off without her.
