At least 12 people are dead and 38 were injured after a man opened fire on a crowd at a The Dark Knight Rises screening in Colorado early Friday morning, local police confirm.

According to various reports, at approximately 12:30 a.m. a man in a gas mask stood in front of a crowd during a screening of the film at a mall multiplex in Aurora and went on a shooting rampage. He set off a smoke bomb before opening fire.

Ten were reportedly killed at the scene, and the rest died at local hospitals, including a 6-year-old. Among the dead were members of the military, according to a Pentagon spokesman. The youngest victim was a 3-month-old, who was treated at a hospital and released.

The suspect, who police did not immediately identify but is believed to be in his early 20s, was reportedly wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a rifle, handgun and knife. Another gun was purportedly recovered at the theater.

Authorities have now ID'd the suspect as 24-year-old James Holmes, a former medical student originally from San Diego.
