AURORA, Colorado—A US gunman arrested for a shooting spree at a showing of the latest Batman movie had booby-trapped his apartment with a “very sophisticated” device, police told local media Friday.

Following an attack that left at least 12 moviegoers dead, Denver news networks quoted the chief of police in the town of Aurora, Colorado as saying the residence was rigged with “inflammable or explosive items.”
