A witness named Corbin Dayton spoke to 9NEWS Reporter Brandon Rittiman Friday morning after the shooting.
Dayton was sitting in the second row, just five feet away from the shooting suspect - later identified as 24-year-old James Holmes.
Dayton claimed he saw someone take a phone call and leave through the emergency door to take it. Dayton said that person kept the door open with their foot. However, when he looked again, the door was closed again.
"About 15 minutes into the movie, the door swung open," Dayton told Rittiman. "A guy walks in all in black, wearing a gas mask, helmet, black armor suit and everything. As soon as the gas cans started going off, I immediately hit the floor. I wasn't there to see the gun pointed at [people.]"

Yesterday, I heard and read a few reports on the radio and internet, about a cell phone call. Last night, Dateline did a reenactment based on witness testimony that included Holmes taking a phone call before he left the theatre to go into the parking lot, but today the above report is the only thing I can find and the Dateline show from last night is not on their website yet, they do have a video of the reenactment but the first few minutes are cut out.. So, it is not certain whether it was Holmes, or not, who took the phone call.
@EM, let's say we are at a pub talking, okay? I would say to you that, even though you have your own area of expertise and experiences that most of us have not, don't let that cloud your judgement into thinking that you know everything about everything, because you don't. I can see how proud you are of what you have seen and been through, but I wish that you would not let your pride make you become close-minded. Believe me when I say that there are people in this world who have seen things that you haven't, just as it is the other way around. Outlandish as that may seem to you. Now run along and have a good wank.

<<< pub talk.
