Police have evacuated the area surrounding the apartment of the man suspected of shooting dead at least 12 people and wounding 50 others during a late-night screening of the new Batman movie as they reveal his home is booby-trapped.
James Holmes, 24, told officers he had explosives stored at his apartment when he was arrested after opening fire at random at the mall in Aurora, Colorado.
Police said they were forced to evacuate Holmes' apartment block, situated four miles from the scene of the horrific crime in North Aurora, and five surrounding buildings.

Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates says bomb technicians are determining how to disarm flammable or explosive material in the third-floor apartment. He says police could be there some time.
Oates says pictures from inside the apartment are fairly disturbing and the devices look to be sophisticated.

“He had help”
Sure did, liberalism. Just like Muslim terrorist have Islam.
His messiah is an Obama.
So far, the evidence smacks of 'OWS Black Bloc' ties, definitely not Tea Party.
The FBI’s getting nervous because James apartment didn’t go ‘boom’ like it was supposed to.
“left his music on REAL loud at his apartment”
I wonder what it was
It was techno. I want to know why the cops never came to his door or how the music was stopped if they didn’t. The witness who says someone took a call in the front row of the theater, exited and possibly allowed James into the theater is another interesting angle.
It was a repeating loop. The sound system was reportedly set to a timer. It came on after Holmes had already left, apparently timed to the beginning of the movie and his attack, and it shut off via timer at 1:00AM, before police arrived at the apartment.
A downstairs neighbor, the woman who tried the door and found it open but fortunately did not go in and trigger the explosives, provided the only description that went beyond merely “techno.” She described it as having a lot of very deep bass and reverb. She is a 20 year old student, surname Fonzi.
well if you read my comment you would see I retracted it genius
No wonder the tea party was blamed for this. OWS may have its fingerprints on this atrocity. OWS is becoming the new Weather Underground.
Techno crap.
Yes. We’re being conned while the cover story is created and set in stone.
Police evacuated an entire city block to disarm the guy’s apartment? Did they go in other apartments or houses, too?
