Batman Theater Shooter Told Cops He Was “The Joker”

At a news conference this afternoon, addressing the horrible Aurora, CO theater shooting during last night’s midnight showing of “Batman: Dark Knight Rises,” New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says the shooter thought he was “The Joker.”

Kelly told reporters,“We have some information, most of it is public. It clearly looks like a deranged individual. He had his hair painted red, he said he was ‘The Joker,’ obviously the ‘enemy’ of Batman.”

But isn’t The Joker known to have green hair? Not red?
