James Holmes, was arrested in the early hours of Friday morning. Holmes, 24, is a University of Colorado-Denver graduate school dropout and neighbors described him as a "loner", reclusive type who ignored other residents when they said hello. Holmes lived in three-floor apartment in the Denver suburb of North Aurora - about four miles from the theater where the killings occurred. See photo of James Holmes here.
Holmes is originally from San Diego, California and moved to Colorado to study. San Diego police read a statement from Holmes' California family saying that their hearts go out to those involved. He was dressed in all black and had on a gas mask, when he raided the movie theater. Some movie goers thought the smoke was part of the movies special effects, according to Associated Press. Holmes is in police custody, and the FBI says there is no indication that incident is tied to any terrorist groups.
