Christian Bale Visits Shooting Victims And Medical Staff

Christian Bale has visited victims of the horrific movie theater shootings in Colorado, with Warner Bros telling The Denver Post that he was representing himself, not the movie studio.One of the 58 survivors of the shooting, Carey Rottman, posted two photos of himself with the star on his Facebook page.

“He just said he wanted to come to thank all of us because he has been thinking about this. He knows the whole world has been thinking about this,” said Janie Bowman-Hayes, assistant vice president of surgical services at Swedish Medical Center in Denver. “He took it upon himself to come and thank us.”

“Words cannot express the horror that I feel,” said Bale. “I cannot begin to truly understand the pain and grief of the victims and their loved ones, but my heart goes out to them.”
