No, The kid on the blog was the hero, Jarell Brooks.
I was referrring to the coward, Jamie Rohrs.
I was in the wrong place at the right time, thats all I can say. I was there at the right time, because I was able to help the family - Jarell Brooks
Jarell Brooks was there to help the family. But wait, the father was there, why didn't the father (Jamie Rohrs) help his girlfriend and two children?
Rohrs, who had Ethan, said he jumped over the seat with the baby in his arms. He said he considered lying on the ground and playing dead but feared for his son's life.
"I'm trying to keep him low. ... And he's crying," Rohrs said. "People are running all over. I'm tripping and falling. I don't know if I laid him down or sat him down. I'm wondering maybe there's more of them. [I'm thinking] 'He's crying and they're going to come get me.' I look up to see if I can run. I'm ducking, dodging, turning left, turning right. ... Every time you hear a gun shot, it's like 'Oh, I'm dead.'"
"I'm just disoriented after I put him down," Rohrs said. "I'm just waiting for me to hit the ground and fall down dead. You could see the gunfire and people are dropping."
He said he wondered where Ethan was but realized he could not go back to get him. Rohrs finally jumped over the balcony and ended up outside.
Patricia Legarreta said she had shrapnel in her leg from the upper thigh to the ankle. While she was on the floor, she said, she could see her 4-month-old baby on the ground near the stairs. Legarreta said she did not know the whereabouts of Rohrs.
"At that point, I reached out and I grabbed him and pulled him in to me," she said. "I didn't even check my leg until we were out in the parking lot."
Rohrs the coward put his 4 month old on the ground, ran out of the theater, ran to his truck, and drove across the parking lot
