AURORA, Colo. (AP) - (UPDATE)- Police Chief Dan Oates says 12 people are dead following a shooting at suburban Denver movie theater.
He says 50 others were injured when a gunman opened fire early Friday at the Aurora theater.
Oates says one gunman stood at the front of one of the Century 16 theaters at the Aurora Mall.
He says "witnesses tell us he released some sort of canister. They heard a hissing sound and some gas emerged and the gunman opened fire."
