Gun Threat Made by Man at 'Dark Knight Rises' Screening

A moviegoer who asked for a gun at a showing of "The Dark Knight Rises'' and made a reference to the massacre in Colorado was due in court today.

Clark Tabor, 52, apparently was upset over the length of previews when he started shouting in a theater at the AMC Norwalk 20 shortly after 5 p.m. Sunday.

Tabor, who was carrying a backpack at the time, was booked on suspicion of making a criminal threat and jailed in lieu of $50,000 bail.

His arraignment was expected today.

Tabor allegedly held his cell phone in the air and yelled, "Does anyone have a gun?'' and "I should go off like in Colorado.''

Authorities searched his backpack and home, but no guns were found.
