Video reveals chaos in wake of shootings

Posted:

AURORA, Colo. (AP) -- Cell phone video purportedly taken in the aftermath of a mass shooting at a Colorado movie theater reveals horrified witnesses watching as apparent victims are carried away from the scene.

The blare of a fire alarm is heard in the video posted online by the Denver Post.

In it one woman asks, "Why don't they have an ambulance?" Another woman responds that ambulances are across the street. The original woman replies, "But why don't they have paramedics over here?"

Police say the gunman opened fire after throwing a canister that erupted in smoke in a theater at a multiplex in Aurora. Police say he is in custody.
