Update 1: 10 confirmed dead so far. Up to 38 injured. This happened in theater 9. One man is in custody. Local news still states its only one person involved. They are checking other theaters in case it's not just a local incident. | ||

Thoughts and hopes goes out to anyone who knows someone there and ofc the people on site. Hope the number doesnt rise, with some luck they might have counted wrong, and that the least amount of people get affected ![]() | ||

+ Show Spoiler + i was there. loud gunshots were heard but i thought it was the movie. the pa system turned on and they announced to get out of the theater. the shooter was a darkish skin man who was throwing tear gas at us. he was wearing a mask that had an iranian flag on it. i'm scared, i saw a girl shot in the face | ||

The person also shot a gun many times. nearly 10-20 confirmed dead and 30 or so injured. Pray for the victims. This is truly scary. Did you really see the attack live ? Reminds me of "God bless america".. | ||

When they have no particular connection to a place, or a particular person to blame for their problems, they will just pick the place where they can deal the most damage possible. I think it's what happened here, unless they were former employees of the theatre. If this estimation is correct, then you can expect more of such acts in times of social unrest, when everyone has access to guns. No, I don't want to discuss gun laws. | ||
