Aurora priest Father Mauricio Bermudez said the murderous movie theater shootings have had a "devastating" effect on the community.
"It's terrible. Everybody is just sad, shocked. People are really frustrated and some are worrying about what will happen with security around here," he told CNA on July 20.
Fr. Bermudez is a parochial vicar at Aurora's Queen of Peace parish, the Catholic church closest to the Century Aurora 16 Theater where a gunman killed 12 people and wounded 59 more during a premiere showing of "The Dark Knight Rises" early Friday morning.
"I'm really sorry about what happened," the priest said. "I don't understand why that happened and why this guy did the things he did."
