Denver shooting: Police to detonate devices in suspect's home

None

The apartment of the man suspected of killing 12 people in a shooting rampage at a Denver-area movie theater on Friday has been so extensively booby-trapped that police have determined they cannot safely defuse the devices, a police source said on Friday.

 

Police now plan to detonate the devices using a robot but said that would not take place until Saturday. Before performing any detonation, which they believe would likely be small in size, police plan to close down traffic on nearby streets and have already evacuated the apartment building as well as several nearby buildings.
