An Aurora, Colo., man was awoken at 3 a.m. by a family member calling from New York to tell him his ex-wife had been shot. It was unknown at the time where his 6-year-old child was. Both were at the tragic shooting at the midnight showing of ?The Dark Knight Rises? in Colorado. Then he learned of the tragic news.

?After three hours of sitting at the children?s hospital in Aurora, I found out my child was dead,? the unnamed man said to KDVR in an interview. ?After being thrown in circles and?circles?and telling me you?ll be able to see her in just a moment, I found out my child is dead.?
After this comment, the man who was facing away from the camera goes silent, shaking his head. Watch the interview:
KDVR reports that the man became enraged at one point and had to be detained by police. His daughter was one of 12 killed in the shootings that occurred around 12:30 a.m. Reports indicate at least 59 were been injured in the scene thus far.
The man has not been admitted to the Aurora Medical Center to see his ex-wife allegedly because of a comment he had made.
?I need to make sure that she?s at least okay. I?ve lost the rest of my family,? he said.
When told the suspected gunman, 24-year-old James Holmes, was still alive, this man said,??Hopefully some people at least have some common courtesy and take care of somebody who has the willpower to murder an innocent child and other innocent people,? he said. ?Hopefully the law enforcement has some kind of courtesy and some kind of basic justice.?
