In a move that illustrates grace and class, both the Colorado Rockies and the Denver Nuggets honored the victims of the “theatre shooting” that happened early Friday morning in Aurora, Co. during a midnight showing of the film, ” The Dark Knight Rises. ”
The Rockies wore black wrist bands, wrote “7-20″ on their eye black and hung a black jersey in the dugout that read “we remember 7-20″, while the Denver Nuggets summer league squad donned black headbands:
Nuggets starting power forward Kenneth Faried spoke to NBA.com about the team’s decision to honor the victims.
The suspect, 24-year old southern California native, James Holmes was apprehended and is currently in police custody.
Prayers for Aurora.
