DENVER (AP) — A psychiatrist who was treating the suspected Colorado movie theater gunman asked University of Colorado police for a background check on the student six weeks before the July 20 shootings, raising questions about concerns she may have had about his behavior, a Denver television station reported Tuesday. KMGH-TV reported that the psychiatrist, Dr. Lynne Fenton, called the University of Colorado police department in early June to ask for a background check on James Holmes. The station cited unidentified sources it said were familiar with the investigation into the shootings.
