Norway survivors visit rampage scene

The families of the victims of a mass shooting rampage on a Norwegian island are due to visit the scene Friday, a month after two attacks plunged the Scandinavian nation into mourning.

AURORA, Colo. — One survivor had to pause on his way into the theatre and pray. Another braced for flashbacks as he entered the auditorium where 12 people died and dozens were injured during a massacre six months earlier. Others refused to come, viewing the reopening of the multiplex as insensitive. The former Century 16, now renovated and renamed the Century Aurora, opened its doors to victims of the July 20 attack on Thursday night with a somber remembrance ceremony and a special showing of “The Hobbit.”

North Korea leader Kim Jong-Un threatened to "wipe out" a South Korean island as Pyongyang came under new economic and diplomatic fire Tuesday from US sanctions and UN charges of gross rights abuses.

The gunman responsible for killing 20 children and six teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December reportedly looked to Norway for inspiration. 

Sunday marks the one-year anniversary of the mass shooting in Norway when a man went on a bomb-and-gun rampage, killing 77 people.

DENVER — The father of a man killed in the mass shooting at a Colorado movie theater says he’ll be present at the reopening, even though his daughter-in-law and relatives of some other victims are refusing to go. Tom Sullivan wrote a column published in Friday’s Denver Post saying his son, Alex, would want him to be there. Alex Sullivan was among 12 people killed in the July 20 attack.
