SAN DIEGO (AP) — A lawyer representing family members of the suspect in the Colorado mass shooting plans to hold a news conference Monday in San Diego.

Lisa Damiani plans to meet reporters at 1 p.m. Pacific time.

She's representing the family of 24-year-old James Holmes, who made his first court appearance Monday in a Denver suburb where he's being held without bond.

Authorities say Holmes opened fire on a crowded movie theater Friday at a midnight showing of the new Batman movie. Twelve people were killed and 58 were wounded.
